So going through the process,
E = (6.626*10^-34) * (3.0 x 10^8 / 5.40 x 10^-7) = 3.68 * 10^-19
Then taking 1% of it = 3.68 x 10^-21
Then plugging it into Δt = h / 2*Pi*3.68 x 10^-21 = 2.86 x 10^-14
I tried this and it was marked wrong, could my units be off or am I again using the wrong...
Homework Statement
