I talked to my professor, It is actually a Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle problem. Δx is 0.5 nm, then you can solve for the Δp. use E = mgh to solve for the ΔE in the time related H.U.P. and then use the velocity from Δp multiplied by the time to get displacement. Finally double the...

Homework Statement A collection of neutrons, nominally at rest, are confined in a region 1.0 nm wide on the x-axis at a height of 50 cm above a neutron detector. The neutrons are released and fall under the influence of gravity towards the detector which records the horizontal position of the...
