Textbook Question
Chapter 2.3, Problem 11P
Use a computer to produce a table and graph, like those in this section, for two interacting two-state paramagnets, each Containing 100 elementary magnetic dipoles. Take a “unit” of energy to be the amount need to flip a single dipole from the “up” state (parallel to the external field) to the “down” state (antiparallel). Suppose that the total number of units of energy relative to the state with all dipoles pointing up, is 80; this energy can be shared in any way between the two paramagnets. What is the most probable macrostate, and what is its probability? What is the least probable macrostate, and what is its probability?

Consider a spring made of a superconducting material (electrical resistance very close to zero) containing N turns, radius R, natural length X0 and elastic constant k, as shown in the figure opposite. Somehow, an electric current I0 is passed through the spring. Calculate the spring length variation at the new equilibrium state. Tip: the magnetic flux over the spring must be constant at all times.
At a point P on the center axis of a magnetic field created by a sufficiently long solenoid, we divide the magnetic field strength vector into a circular loop of the solenoid coil as shown below to add all the magnetic fields they create. (Let's simplify to continuous which isn't continuous). Complete this task to show that the magnetic field strength is "first image"at P point.
