Solve by difficulty

In an atom, an electron is moving with a speed of 600 m/s with an uncertainty of 0.005%. Uncertainty with which the position of the electron can be located is X m. The value of X is 

\left ( h=6.6\times 10^{-34}kg\: m^{2}\: s^{-1},mass \: of\: electron, e_{m}=9.1\times 10^{-31}kg \right )

Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle

Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle:

The principle states that, product of uncertainty in position(Δx) and uncertainty in momentum(Δp) is always constant and is equal to or greater than h/4π

\Delta x .\Delta p\geq \frac{h}{4\pi}
