Physics

In the ground state of atomic hydrogen the electron can bepictured as existing some- where within a distance ∆x from theposition of the nucleus with ∆x interpreted as the uncertainty inthe position of the electron.

  1. (a) If ∆x is taken ot be the Bohr radius, calculate theuncertainty in the momentum of the electron.

  2. (b) If the uncertainty relation is written as rp = h(bar)?, theenergy of the hydrogen atom can be expressed by

E(p)=(p^2/2m)-(e^2p/h)

Calculate the minimum energy of the hydrogen atom.
