What is the uncertainty speed of a hydrogen atom inside a virus?

In summary, the uncertainty speed of a hydrogen atom inside a virus is constantly changing and cannot be determined with certainty. However, it can be measured using advanced techniques such as spectroscopy and quantum mechanics principles. This speed plays a crucial role in determining the virus's behavior and interactions with its environment. Currently, there is no known way to control it, but research is ongoing. It is not directly used for medical treatments, but understanding and manipulating it can aid in the development of treatments and vaccines for viral infections.

What is the uncertainty speed of a hydrogen atom inside a virus? Even though the vaue of uncertainty in position is not given. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

You might want to consider what the maximum uncertainity in position of the hydrogen atom is (hint: the atom is in in the virus)
 
  • #3
so a virus is roughly 100 nm and a hydrogen atom is .1 nm, so would that make the uncertainty in position 10 nm? thanks for the help btw

How would you have arrived at 10nm?
