Assertion $(A)$: The probability of finding an electron in a small volume around a point $(x, y, z)$ at a distance $r$ from the nucleus is proportional to $\psi^2$.
Reason $(R)$: Subatomic particles possess both particle and wave nature.

Calculate the uncertainty in the position of an electron $(mass = 9.1 \times 10^{-28} \ g)$ moving with a velocity of $3 \times 10^4 \ cm \ sec^{-1}$,if the uncertainty in velocity is $0.011 \%$ (in $cm$)?

Given below are two statements $:$
Statement $(I):$ It is impossible to specify simultaneously with arbitrary precision,both the linear momentum and the position of a particle.
Statement $(II) :$ If the uncertainty in the measurement of position and uncertainty in measurement of momentum are equal for an electron,then the uncertainty in the measurement of velocity is $\geq \sqrt{\frac{h}{4\pi}} \times \frac{1}{m}$ which simplifies to $\geq \frac{1}{2m} \sqrt{\frac{h}{\pi}}$. In the light of the above statements,choose the correct answer from the options given below $:$
