In an atom,an electron is moving with a speed of $600 \ m/sec$ with an uncertainty of $0.005\%$. The uncertainty with which the position of the electron can be located is:

  • A
    $5.10 \times 10^{-3} \ m$
  • B
    $1.92 \times 10^{-3} \ m$
  • C
    $3.84 \times 10^{-3} \ m$
  • D
    $1.52 \times 10^{-4} \ m$
