Question

Part A If the accuracy in measuring the position of a particle increases, what happens to the accuracy in measuring its velocity? If the accuracy in measuring the position of a particle increases, what happens to the accuracy in measuring its velocity? The accuracy in measuring its velocity also increases. The accuracy in measuring its velocity decreases. The accuracy in measuring its velocity remains the same. The accuracy in measuring its velocity becomes uncertain.

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is the speed accuracy decreases

Explanation:

Before examining the final statements, let's review the uncertainty principle

       Δx  Δp> = h ’/ 2

       h ’= h / 2π

This is because the process of measuring one quantity affects the measurement of the other.

Let's review the claims

The speed of the particle is proportional to the moment

           p = mv

Therefore, if the position is measured more accurately (x) the accuracy of p must decrease

        Δp = h ’/ 2 Δx

The correct answer is the speed accuracy decreases
