Heisenberg's uncertainty principle

\Delta x \times \Delta p=\frac{h}{4\pi}

\Delta x \times \Delta \left ( mv \right )=\frac{h}{4\pi}

\Rightarrow \Delta V=\frac{h}{4\pi m \times \Delta x}

\Rightarrow 45 \times y=\frac{6.626 \times10^{-34}}{4 \times 3.14 \times 0.040 \times 1.46 \times10^{-33}}

\Rightarrow y=0.02

Hence, wihin 2% accuracy
