An electron is trapped in a quantum well that is 48.6 nm wide.
 
  Calculate the minimum uncertainty in its velocity. (h = 6.626  10-34 J  s, melectron = 9.11  10-31 kg)
  A) 2.38  103 m/s
  B) 1.01  103 m/s
  C) 3.34  104 m/s
  D) 1.79  104 m/s
  E) 7.49  103 m/s

Question 2

A giant star in another galaxy exploded 67 million years ago, forming a supernova. The event is observed by an astronomer on Earth.
 
  Estimate the speed at which the supernova (and its galaxy) recedes from Earth if the Hubble constant is 22 km/s per million light-years. (c = 3.00  108 m/s, 1 ly = 9.461  1015 m, 1 y = 3.156  107 s)
  A) 4700 km/s B) 2700 km/s C) 1500 km/s D) 1200 km/s E) 670 km/s
