SSM WWW A box contains N gas molecules, Consider the box to be divided into three equal parts (a) By extension of Eq. 20-20, write a formula for the multiplicity of any given configuration, (b) Consider two configurations: configuration A with equal number of molecules in all three thirds of the box, and configuration B with equal numbers of molecules in each half of the box divided into two equal parts rather then three. What is the ratio W A /W B of the multiplicity of configuration A to that of configuration B ? (c) Evaluate W A /W B for N = 100. (Because 100 is not evenly divisible by 3, put 34 molecules into one of the three box parts of configuration A and 33 in each of the other two parts.)

The figure shows four orientations of an electric di-
pole in an external electric field. Rank the orienta-
tions according to (a) the magnitude of the torque
on the dipole and (b) the potential energy of the di-
pole, greatest first.
