If the uncertainty in velocity and position of a minute particle in space are, 2.4 × 10−26 (m s−1) and 10−7 (m) respectively. The mass of the particle in g is ____________. (Nearest integer)

(Given : h = 6.626 × 10−34 Js)

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

We know from hisenberg uncertainty principle

Δx.Δp=h4π

⇒Δx.mΔv=h4π

Given,

Δx = 10−7 m

Δx = 2.4 × 10−26 m/s

h = 6.626 × 10−34 Js

∴ 10−7×m×2.4×10−26=6.626×10−344π

⇒2.4m=6.6264π×10

⇒ m = 0.022 kg

⇒ m = 22 gm
