A golf ball has a mass og 40 g, and a speed of
45m/sec. If the speed can be measured within accuracy of 2 %, Calculate the
uncertainity in the position.
Using Heisenberg's uncertainity priniciple
Δx * Δp= h/4π
Δp= mΔv
Given, m= 40 g= .04 kg
Δv= 45 * 0.02
So, Δx= (h/4π Δp)
h= 6.626 * 10 -34 sq. m kg/s
Using above values in the above formula we get
Δx= 1.4 * 10 -33m
