Uncertainty in the position of an electron (mass = 9.1 x 10-34 kg) moving with a velocity 300 m s-1 , accurate up to 0.001%, will be: (h= 6.63 x 10-34 J s)

(AIEEE 2006)

a) 19.2 x 10-2 m

b) 5.76 x 10-2 m

c) 1.92 x 10-2 m

d) 3.84 x 10-2 m

Logic:

According to Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, the product of uncertainties in position (Δx) and velocity (Δv) is always equal to or greater than h/nπ.

i.e.

What is the meaning of "accurate up to 0.001%"?

It indicates that the uncertainty in velocity is 0.001% of actual value, 300 m s-1.

i.e.

uncertainty in velocity (Δv) = 300 x 0.001 / 100 = 3 x 10-3 m s-1

Solution:

The uncertainty in position (Δx) can be calculated as follows:

Note: n = 4 for electron.

Conclusion:

The correct option is "c".

4) In an atom, an electron is moving with a speed of 600 m/s with an accuracy of 0.005%. Certainty with which the position of the electron can be located is: (h=6.6 x 10-34 kg m2 s-1; mass of electron, em = 9.1 x 10-31 kg )

(AIEEE 2009)

1) 1.52 x 10-4 m

2) 5.10 x 10-3 m

3) 1.92 x 10-3 m

4) 3.84 x 10-3 m

Logic & solution:

Since the accuracy in velocity is 0.005%, uncertainty in velocity, Δv = 600 x 0.005 / 100 = 3 x 10-2 m s-1.

Uncertainty in position will be:

Conclusion:

Correct option is "3".
