A particle consisting of four iron atoms (object 1) initially has 1 quantum of energy. It is brought into contact with a particle consisting of two iron atoms (object 2) which initially has 2 quanta of energy. The mass of one mole of iron is 56 grams.
(a) Using the Einstein model of a solid, calculate and plot ln(OMEGA)1 vs.Q1 (the number of quanta in object1), ln2 vs. Q1, and ln(OMEGA)total vs. Q1 (put all three plots on the same graph). Show your work and explain briefly.
(b) Calculate the (approximate) temperature of object 1 at equilibrium. State what assumptions or approximations you made.
