  1. A \(\frac{1}{2 m} \sqrt{\frac{h}{\pi}}\)
  2. B \(\frac{1}{m} \sqrt{\frac{h}{\pi}}\)
  3. C \(\sqrt{\frac{h}{\pi}}\)
  4. D \(m \sqrt{\frac{h}{\pi}}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{1}{2 m} \sqrt{\frac{h}{\pi}}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\begin{aligned} & \Delta \mathrm{x} \times \Delta \mathrm{p}=\frac{\mathrm{h}}{4 \pi} \\ & \text { Given, } \Delta \mathrm{x} \times \Delta \mathrm{p} \\ & (\Delta \mathrm{p})^2=\frac{\mathrm{h}}{4 \pi} \Rightarrow \Delta \mathrm{p}=\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{h}}{4 \pi}} \\ &…
