Given: The mass of an electron is $9.1 \times 10^{-31} \ kg$,Planck's constant is $6.62 \times 10^{-34} \ J \cdot s$. The uncertainty involved in the measurement of velocity within a distance of $0.1 \ \mathring{A}$ is:

  • A
    $5.79 \times 10^6 \ m \cdot s^{-1}$
  • B
    $5.79 \times 10^7 \ m \cdot s^{-1}$
  • C
    $5.79 \times 10^8 \ m \cdot s^{-1}$
  • D
    $5.79 \times 10^5 \ m \cdot s^{-1}$
