What is the minimum uncertainty in the velocity

Reference no: EM13691911

Problem: The location of a particle is measured with an uncertainty of 0.19 nm. One tries to simultaneously measure the velocity of this particle. The mass of the particle is 1.743E-27 kg.

Part I: What is the minimum uncertainty in the velocity measurement?

(in m/s)

Please show work I think I have the solution just not positive. Thanks.
