3) A DNA molecule of contour length 16.4 um is extended to an end-to-end length of 10.0 um by applying a force f on the molecule. Find the numerical value of f. You will need to look up the persistence length of DNA under standard physiological conditions. Also, remember that DNA is a semi-flexible polymer.
