Answer:
Explanation:
Applying the Heisenberg uncertainty principle,
Δx X mΔv = h/4π
where Δx = uncertainty in measurement of position
Δv = uncertainty in measurement of velocity
m = mass of object
h = planck's constant
Here:
Δv = 0.4 A° = 4.0 x 10^-11 m
mass, m = 9.11 x 10^-31 Kg
Plugging the values,
4.0 x 10^-11 x Δ v = (6.626 x 10^-34) / (4 x 3.14 x 9.11E-31)
4.0 x 10^-11 x Δ v = 5.791 x 10^-5
Δv = 1.448 x 10^6 m/s, the uncertainty in its velocity
Answer = 1.45 x 10^6 m/s
