    If uncertainty in position and velocity are equal, then uncertainty in momentum will be

    A)  \[\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{\frac{mh}{\pi }}\]

    B)  \[\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{\frac{h}{\pi m}}\]

    C)  \[\frac{h}{4\pi m}\]

    D)  \[\frac{mh}{4\pi }\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     \[\because \] \[\Delta x=\Delta v\] \[\Delta x\times \Delta p\ge \frac{h}{4\pi }\] \[\Delta x\times m.\Delta v=\frac{h}{4\pi }\] \[{{(\Delta v)}^{2}}=\frac{h}{4\pi m}\] \[(\because \Delta x=\Delta v)\] \[\therefore \] \[\Delta p=m.\Delta v\] \[=m\sqrt{\frac{h}{4\pi m}}=\sqrt{\frac{mh}{4\pi }}\] \[\Delta p=\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{\frac{mh}{\pi }}\]
