Consider a box with two gases separated by an impermeable membrane. The membrane can move back and forth, but the gases cannot penetrate the membrane. The left side is filled with gas A and the right side is filled with gas B. We will assume that equipartition applies to both gases, but gas A has an excluded volume due to large molecules so its entropy has a different formula. SA=NAkln(VA+ bNA)+f(UA, NA)
SB=NBkln(VB)+f(UB, NB)

Required:
If NA= 1 moles, NB = 2 moles, the total volume of the box is 1 m3, and b= 4 × 10-4 m3/mole, then find the equilibrium value of VA by maximizing the total entropy.

The frequency of vibrations of a vibrating violin string is given by f = 1 2l t ρ where l is the length of the string, t is its tension, and ρ is its linear density.† (a) find the rate of change of the frequency with respect to the following. (i) the length (when t and ρ are constant) (ii) the tension (when l and ρ are constant) (iii) the linear density (when l and t are constant) (b) the pitch of a note (how high or low the note sounds) is determined by the frequency f. (the higher the frequency, the higher the pitch.) use the signs of the derivatives in part (a) to determine what happens to the pitch of a note for the following. (i) when the effective length of a string is decreased by placing a finger on the string so a shorter portion of the string vibrates df dl 0 and l is ⇒ f is ⇒ (ii) when the tension is increased by turning a tuning peg df dt 0 and t is ⇒ f is ⇒ (iii) when the linear density is increased by switching to another string df dρ 0 and ρ is ⇒ f is ⇒
