Uncertainty Principle Using Energy and Time: An unstable particle produced in a high-energy collision is measured to have an energy of 483 MeV and an uncertainty in energy of 29 keV. Use the Heisenberg uncertainty principle to estimate the lifetime of this particle. (h = 6.626 × 10-34 J ? s, 1 eV = 1.60 × 10-19)
