Answer:

2.78\times 10^{-35}\ \text{kg m/s}

6.178\times 10^{-34}\ \text{m/s}

0.31\times 10^{-4}\ \text{m/s}

Explanation:

\Delta x = Uncertainty in position = 1.9 m

\Delta p = Uncertainty in momentum

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{-34}\ \text{Js}

m = Mass of object

From Heisenberg's uncertainty principle we know

\Delta x\Delta p\geq \dfrac{h}{4\pi}\\\Rightarrow \Delta p\geq \dfrac{h}{4\pi\Delta x}\\\Rightarrow \Delta p\geq \dfrac{6.626\times 10^{-34}}{4\pi\times 1.9}\\\Rightarrow \Delta p\geq 2.78\times 10^{-35}\ \text{kg m/s}

The minimum uncertainty in the momentum of the object is 2.78\times 10^{-35}\ \text{kg m/s}

Golf ball minimum uncertainty in the momentum of the object

m=0.045\ \text{kg}

Uncertainty in velocity is given by

\Delta p\geq m\Delta v\geq 2.78\times 10^{-35}\\\Rightarrow \Delta v\geq \dfrac{2.78\times 10^{-35}}{m}\\\Rightarrow \Delta v\geq \dfrac{2.78\times 10^{-35}}{0.045}\\\Rightarrow \Delta v\geq 6.178\times 10^{-34}\ \text{m/s}

The minimum uncertainty in the object's velocity is 6.178\times 10^{-34}\ \text{m/s}

Electron

m=9.11\times 10^{-31}\ \text{kg}

\Delta v\geq \dfrac{\Delta p}{m}\\\Rightarrow \Delta v\geq \dfrac{2.78\times 10^{-35}}{9.11\times 10^{-31}}\\\Rightarrow \Delta v\geq 0.31\times 10^{-4}\ \text{m/s}

The minimum uncertainty in the object's velocity is 0.31\times 10^{-4}\ \text{m/s}.

How do the amplitudes of a 120 decibel sound and a 100-decibel sound compare?​
NemiM [27]
The 120 decibel sound has more amplitude than the 100 decibel sound.

In Physics, the relation between amplitude and intensity is that the intensity of the wave is directly proportional to the square of its amplitude.

The properties of element 17 are most similar to which of the following elements?
DedPeter [7]

Halogens are highly reactive nonmetal elements in group 17 of the periodic table. ... Halogens are among the most reactive of all elements. They have seven valence electrons, so they are very “eager” to gain one electron to have a full outer energy level.
