Question 1

Because of Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle, the velocity of a particle is known least precisely when the length of the wave packet representing the particle is

◦
< 10−15 m.

◦
< 10−10 m.

◦
of the order of 1.00 m.

◦
>10 m.

◦
the length of a plane wave (infinite)


Question 2

Because the factor h on the right side of the Heisenberg uncertainty principle has units of Joule-seconds, it suggests that the energy of a system also has uncertainty. The uncertainty in energy depends on the length of the time interval during which a system exists. ΔEΔt≥h/4π. Suppose an unstable mass is produced during a high-energy collision such that the uncertainty in its mass is me/100. (me = 9.11 × 10−31 kg.) How long will this particle exist?

◦
6.4 × 10−20 s

◦
2.3 × 10−23 s

◦
1.0 × 1015 s

◦
1.2 × 1013 s

◦
8.1 × 10−19 s
