(ii) Assume that an electron is moving along the x-axis with a speed
of 3.66 x 106 m/s and with a precision of 0.50%. Calculate the
minimum uncertainty (as allowed by the uncertainty principle in
quantum theory) with which the position of the electron along the
X-axis simultaneously can be measured with the speed?

What is this constant? (This result is known as Wien's transition law.) Tip: you can
solve the constant approximation by e.g. iterating an equation of the form
Xn = 5 (1-e¯Xn-1)
with a suitable initial value x1.
