Physics · Statistical Mechanics
In statistical mechanics, the probability P(E) of a small subsystem A having an energy E when in thermal contact with a large reservoir A' with total energy E0 is proportional to the number of microstates of the reservoir. This is mathematically expressed as:
- 1P(E) = C Ω(E) / Ω'(E0 - E)
- 2P(E) = C Ω(E) / Ω'(E0)
- 3P(E) = C Ω(E) Ω'(E0 - E)✓
- 4P(E) = C Ω(E) Ω'(E0)
Correct answer
P(E) = C Ω(E) Ω'(E0 - E)
