Show that if the measurement of the uncertainty in the location of the particle is equal to its de Broglie wavelength,the minimum uncertinty in its velocity (/_\v) is equal to 1/4pi of its velocity(V)

Answer»

Solution :If, uncertainty in position`=/_\x=gamma`,the vale of uncertainty in velocity=`v/(4PI)`
Heisenberg.s PRINCIPLE states that
`/_\x./_\v.m=h/(4pi)`………….(i)
de Broglie equation states that
`gamma=h/(mv)`………..(2)
`:.h=gamma.m.v`……..(3)
`/_\x=h/(/_\v.4pi)`.............(4)
`/_\X=(gammaxxm.v)/(/_\v.4pi.m)`
`if/_\x=gamma`
`/_\v=(CANCEL(x.m).v)/(cancel(x).4pi.cancel(m))=v/(4pi)`.
