The velocity of a proton in an accelerator is known to an accuracy of \[{\bf{0}}{\bf{.250 \% }}\]of the speed of light. (This could be small compared with its velocity.) What is the smallest possible uncertainty in its position?
Repeat the previous problem for a \({\bf{10}}{\bf{.0}}\)-nm-wavelength photon.
The decay energy of a short-lived nuclear excited state has an uncertainty of 2.0 eV due to its short lifetime. What is the smallest lifetime it can have?
Which formula may be used for the momentum of all particles, with or without mass?
What is the longest-wavelength EM radiation that can eject a photoelectron from silver, given that the binding energy is 4.73 eV? Is this in the visible range?
