PREFACE
This manual contains solutions to the problems in Fundamentals of Statistical and Thermal
Physics, by F. Reif. The problems have been solved using only the ideas explicitly presented
in this text and in the way a student encountering this material for the first tillle would
probab]_y approach them. Certain topics which have implications far beyond those called for in
the statement of the problems are not developed further here. The reader can refer to the
numerous treatments of these subjects. Except when new symbols are defined, the notation
conforms to that of the text.
It is a pleasure to thar,k Dr. Reif for the help and encouragement be freely gave as this
work was progressing, but he has not read all of this material and is in no way responsible for
its shortcomings. Sincere thanks are also due to Miss Beverly West for patiently typing the
entire manuscript.
I would great]_y appreciate your calling errors or omissions to my attention.

There are 6-6-6 = 216 ways to roll three dice. The throws giving a sum less than or equal to 6

and

we find m2 = N and ";f+ = 3lf - 2N.

The probability of n successes out of N trials is given by the sum

'We consider the relative motion of the two drunks. With each sillr..i.ltaneous step, they have a

(b) The entropy change of an ideal gas in a process taking it from T1,vi to Tf,Vf vas found in
problem 4.3
t:,S = O for an adiabatic quasistatic process.
5.2
and since 1n 1 = O, it follows that
V l-7
( ...!.. ) Ti' = Ti V 1
(a) W = J p a;, = area enclosed by curve = 314 joules
(b) Since the energy of an ideal gas is only a function of the temperature and since pV = Rr,
3 PcVc PAVA
AE = ~ 6T = 2 R ( ~ - -R-)
= ¾ (6-2) x 1a9 ergs= 6co joules
( c) Q = AE + W vhere AE is calculated in (b) since the energy change is independent of path.
Again the vork is the area under the curve.
Q = 600 + [ 4CO +
1
~ ] = 1157 joules
5.3
(a)
(b) W = J p a!-/ = area under curve = 1300 joules
(c) To find the heat, Q, ve first find the energy change in going from A to c. This, of
course, is independent of the path.
t:.E = c.p = i R(Tc-TA) = i (PcVc - PAVA) = 1500 joules
20
Then since Q = .6E + W
Q = 1500 + 1300 = 2800 joules
(d) From problem 4.3

5.4
(a} The total system, i.e., water and gases, does not exchange energy with the environment, so
its energy remains the same af'ter the expansion. Since the water cannot do vork, its energy
change is given by the heat it absorbs, 6E = Q = G,_,fT, where ~ is the heat capacity. The
energy of the two ideal gases is, of course, dependent o~ on temperature, .6E = C6T, where C is
the heat capacity.
6E(vater) + 6E(He) + 6E(A) = O
'1l(Tf-Ti) + CHe(Tf-Ti) + CA(Tf-Ti) = O
Thus Tf = Ti, no temperature change.
(b) Let -l be the distance from the left and v the number of moles.

(a) The temperature decreases. The gas does work at the expense of its internal energy.
(b) The entropy of the gas increases since the process is irreversible.
(c) The system is isolated, Q = O, and from the first law

The internal energy of the gas is o~ a i'unction of temperature, .6E = vcv(Tf-T

Substitution of (2) into (1) yields
dH = JJJ a3v d3v an 'Vcr(f 'f' -f f) (ln f+ 1) dt - -1 1 1 (3)
This integral is invarient under the interchange of:!.. and ~l because a is invariant under this
interchange. When the resulting expression is added to (3) we have
(4)
Similarly, this integral is invarient if the initial and final velocities are interchanged because
cr is invarient under the inverse collision, i.e.,
