Heisenberg uncertainty principle can be explained as:

1. \(\Delta x \geq \frac{\Delta p \times h}{4 \pi} \)
2. \(\Delta x \times \Delta p \geq \frac{h}{4 \pi} \)
3. \(\Delta x \times \Delta p < \frac{h}{4\pi} \)
4. \(\Delta p \geq \frac{\pi h}{\Delta x} \)

If uncertainty in position and momentum are equal, then the minimum uncertainty in velocity will be:

1. \(\dfrac{1}{m} \sqrt{\dfrac{h}{\pi}} \) 2. \(\sqrt{\dfrac{h}{\pi}} \)
3. \(\dfrac{1}{2 m} \sqrt{\dfrac{h}{\pi}} \) 4. \(\dfrac{h}{4 \pi} \)
