Answer:
Mason notices that his boat sinks lower into the water in a freshwater lake than in the ocean. What could explain this?
Explanation:
The freshwater has less density then the ocean!
Answer:
(a) 7.11 x 10⁻³⁷ m
(b) 1.11 x 10⁻³⁵ m
Explanation:
(a) The de Broglie wavelength is given by the expression:
λ = h/p = h/mv
where h is plancks constant, p is momentum which is equal to mass times velocity.
We have all the data required to calculate the wavelength, but first we will have to convert the velocity to m/s, and the mass to kilograms to work in metric system.
v = 19.8 mi/h x ( 1609.34 m/s ) x ( 1 h / 3600 s ) = 8.85 m/s
m = 232 lb x ( 0.454 kg/ lb ) = 105.33 kg
λ = h/ mv = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J·s / ( 105.33 kg x 8.85 m/s ) = 7.11 x 10⁻³⁷ m
(b) For this part we have to use the uncertainty principle associated with wave-matter:
ΔpΔx > = h/4π
mΔvΔx > = h/4π
Δx = h/ (4π m Δv )
Again to utilize this equation we will have to convert the uncertainty in velocity to m/s for unit consistency.
Δv = 0.1 mi/h x ( 1609.34 m/mi ) x ( 1 h/ 3600 s )
= 0.045 m/s
Δx = h/ (4π m Δv ) = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J·s / (4π x 105.33 kg x 0.045 m/s )
= 1.11 x 10⁻³⁵ m
This calculation shows us why we should not be talking of wavelengths associatiated with everyday macroscopic objects for we are obtaining an uncertainty of 1.11 x 10⁻³⁵ m for the position of the fullback.

BIOMEDICAL IMPORTANCE
In addition to serving as precursors of nucleic acids, purine and pyrimidine nucleotides participate in metabolic functions as diverse as energy metabolism, protein synthesis, regulation of enzyme activity, and signal transduction.
