    Heisenberg's uncertianty principle

    Can anyone help me with this question? A simple harmonic oscillator can be considered to be a small mass "m" on a spring of a force constant "k" when the force is f = -kx and the potential energy is V(x) = 1/2mw(squared)x(squared) where w = square root of (k/m) Knowing this I need to show...
