question 42

Multiple Choice

You want to make simultaneous measurements of the position and momentum of an electron and a proton that are moving along a straight line. An alternate statement of the uncertainty principle involves relationship between position $\Delta$ x) and momentum $\Delta$ p) uncertainties in the form $You want to make simultaneous measurements of the position and momentum of an electron and a proton that are moving along a straight line.
