Which of the following statements is incorrect?

The uncertainties in the velocities of two particles,$A$ and $B$ are $0.05 \ ms^{-1}$ and $0.02 \ ms^{-1}$ respectively. The mass of $B$ is five times that of the mass of $A$. What is the ratio of uncertainties $\frac{\Delta x_A}{\Delta x_B}$ in their positions?

An electron has a velocity of $600 \, m/s$ with an accuracy of $0.005 \%$. Calculate the uncertainty in the position of this electron.

Find the uncertainty in the position of an electron which is moving with a velocity of $2.99 \times 10^4 \ cm \ s^{-1}$,accurate up to $0.0016 \%$. (Given,$m_e = 9.1 \times 10^{-28} \ g, h = 6.626 \times 10^{-27} \ erg \cdot s$)

If $\Delta x$ is the uncertainty in position and $\Delta v$ is the uncertainty in velocity of a particle are equal,the correct expression for uncertainty in momentum for the same particle is
