Document Summary

Equation sheet: make your own, one double sided letter size. In how many ways can we distribute 4 quanta in object 2 : 1 way, 4 ways, 4!=1*2*3*4=24 ways. Total number of microstates with n quanta in object 2: Probability to find n quanta on object 2 is proportional to the number of microstates with (q-n) quanta in object 1. The probability of finding a microscopic system to be in a state with energy de above ground state is proportional to. At very high temperature it is possible to have more oscillators in the first excited state than in ground state: true, false. Room temperature ~300 k: kt = 0. 026 ev. Temperature at which kt = 10. 2 ev : t=120,000 k. Measure energy on a single oscillator many times. Number of measurements at energy e is proportional to: Measure energy on each oscillator on a system at once. Number of oscillators at energy e is proportional to:
