Techniques and applications of quantum theory

Quantum theory, often known as quantum physics, is the foundation of modern physics and encompasses the nature and behavior of matter and energy at the atomic and molecular levels. As the exact nature and behavior of atomic and subatomic particles are impossible to determine, the laws of classical physics do not apply to this discipline. As a result, quantum field theory is primarily based on assumptions and probabilities.

Question

Using the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, calculate the frequency spread Av for a nanosec-
ond (10-9 s) pulse from a CO2 laser, in which the nominal photon energy is hv = 0.112 eV.
