According to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle: - Vidyadip

MCQ

According to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle:

A
Momentum of an electron can be found exactly if its position is known.
B
The lowest energy of an atom can hold only one electron.
C
Light has a dual nature- wave and photon.
D
There is a limit to the accuracy of the measurement of subatomic particles.

Answer

There is a limit to the accuracy of the measurement of subatomic particles.

Explanation:

According to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, the position and the momentum of the particle cannot be measured accurately simultaneously. Thus there is a limitation to the accuracy of the measurement of subatomic particles.

A tank containing a liquid has turns of wire wrapped around it, causing it to act as an inductor. The liquid content of the tank can be measured by using its inductance to determine the height of the liquid level in the tank. The inductance of the tank changes from a value of L_o corresponding to a relative permeability of 1 when the tank is empty to value L_fcorresponding to a relative permeability X_m (relative permeability of liquid) when the tank is full. The appropriate electronic circuit can determine the inductance correct upto 5 significant figures and thus the effective relative permeability of the combined air and liquid within the rectangular has height D. The height of the liquid level in the tank is d. Ignore the fringing effects. Assume tank is fitted with H_gX_Hg = 2.9 × 10⁵.
Express d as a function of L, inductance corresponding to a certain liquid height L0,Lf and D.

A closed surface S is constructed around a conducting wire connected to a battery and a switch (figure). As the switch is closed, the free electrons in the wire start moving along the wire. In any time interval, the number of electrons entering the closed surface S is equal to the number of electrons leaving it. On closing the switch, the flux of the electric field through the closed surface:
