A small particle of mass 10^-6 gm moves along the x-axis; its speed is uncertain by 10^-6 m/s. (a) What is the uncertainty in the x coordinate of the particle? (b) Repeat the calculation for an electron assuming that the uncertainty in its velocity is also 10^-6 m/s. Use the known values for electrons and Planck's constant.

A worked answer is on its wayMeanwhile, read the Physics notes for this topic.
