Hey !!
Heisenberg in 1927, pointed out that it is not possible to measure both position and momentum (or velocity) of a microscope particle at the same time with absolute accuracy.
Mathematically, Δx × Δp = h/4π
Here, Δx = uncertainty in position
Δp = uncertainty in momentum
Now,
p = mv
Hence, Δp = mΔv
By putting the value of Δp in the above expression, we get
mΔv × Δ x ≥ h/4π (or) Δv × Δx ≥ h/4π × m
Good luck !!
