4. Liner ionic crystal. Consider a line of 2N ions of alternating charge ±q with a repulsive potential energy A/R" between nearest neighbors. (a) Show that at the equilibrium separation (CGS) (b) Let the crystal be compressed so that R. → R. (1-8). Show that the work done in a compressing a unit length of the crystal has the leading term C8²/2, where 2 (n-1)q² In 2 (CGS) C = U(R): = 2Nq² In 2 (₁-1). Ro n Ro To obtain the results in SI, replace q² by q²/4л. Note: We should not expect to obtain this result from the expression for U(R), but we must use the complete expression for U(R).
