In that universe, which of the following objects would require quantum mechanics to describe, that is, would show both particle and wave properties? Which objects would act like everyday objects, and be adequately described by classical mechanics? object A mosquito with a mass of 1.8 mg, 11.9 mm long, moving at 3.4 m/s. A human with mass of 53. kg, 2.4 m high, moving at 4.0 m/s.
