    According to Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, the product of uncertainties in position and velocities for an electron of mass \[9.1\times {{10}^{-31}}\,kg\]is

    A) \[3.8\times {{10}^{-5}}{{m}^{2}}{{s}^{-1}}\]           

    B) \[6.8\times {{10}^{-3}}{{m}^{2}}{{s}^{-1}}\]           

    C) \[5.8\times {{10}^{-5}}{{m}^{2}}{{s}^{-1}}\]

    D)      \[1.8\times {{10}^{-4}}{{m}^{2}}{{s}^{-1}}\]           

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Here, Mass of electron \[=9.1\times {{10}^{-31}}\,kg\] Planck's constant\[=6.63\times {{10}^{-34}}\,kg\,{{m}^{2}}{{s}^{-1}}\] Now by using \[\Delta x=\times \,\Delta p=\frac{h}{4\pi }\] \[\Delta x\Delta v\times m=\frac{h}{4\pi }\] \[\Delta x\times \Delta v=\frac{h}{4\pi .m}\] \[=\frac{6.63\times {{10}^{-34}}}{4\times 3.14\times 9.1\times {{10}^{-31}}}\] \[=5.8\times {{10}^{-5}}\,{{m}^{2}}{{s}^{-1}}.\] Hence, the correct option is (c).
