Problem

An electron is localised within a region of width 1.0 A˚1.0\,\text{Å} inside an atom. Find the minimum possible uncertainty in its linear momentum Δp\Delta p. a) 2.6×10−25 kg m s−12.6\times10^{-25}\,\text{kg m s}^{-1} b) 5.3×10−25 kg m s−15.3\times10^{-25}\,\text{kg m s}^{-1} c) 1.1×10−24 kg m s−11.1\times10^{-24}\,\text{kg m s}^{-1} d) 3.3×10−24 kg m s−13.3\times10^{-24}\,\text{kg m s}^{-1}
