A student is examining a bacterium under the microscope. The E. coli bacterial cell has a mass of m = 0.100 fg (where a femtogram, fg, is 10^-15g) and is swimming at a velocity of v = 2.00 um/s, with an uncertainty in the velocity of 9.00 %. E. coli bacterial cells are around 1 um ( 10^-6m in length.
What is the uncertainty of the position of the bacterium?
