AI Generated Solution

To solve the question regarding the product of uncertainties in position and velocity of an electron, we will use the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Understand the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle states that it is impossible to simultaneously know both the position (Δx) and momentum (Δp) of a particle with absolute certainty. The principle is mathematically represented as: \[ \Delta x \cdot \Delta p \geq \frac{h}{4\pi} \] where: - Δx = uncertainty in position - Δp = uncertainty in momentum ...
