The uncertainty in the position of a flying dust particle of mass 0.1 mg is found to be 10^(-4)m. The uncertainty in the position of another flying dust particle of mass 0.5 mg is also found to be same If a third flying dust particle of mass 1 mg had the same uncertainty in position as in its velocity, the uncertainty in its momentum would be

Answer»

`5.2 xx 10^(-28) kg ms^(-1)`
`5.2 xx 10^(-34) kg ms^(-1)`
`7.2 xx 10^(-15) kg ms^(-1)`
`7.2 xx 10^(-21) kg ms^(-1)`

SOLUTION :Here, `Delta x = Delta v = x`(say)
Hence, `Delta x (m Delta v) = (h)/(4pi)` gives
`x xx (10^(-6) kg xx x) = (6.6 xx 10^(-34) g m^(2) s^(2))/(4 xx 3.14)`
or `x^(2) = 52.5 xx 10^(-30) or x = 7.25 xx 10^(-15)`
`:. Delta p = m Delta v = 10^(-6) kg xx 7.25 xx 10^(-15) ms^(-1)`
`= 7.25 xx 10^(-21) kg m s^(-1)`
