Halliday, Resnick & Walker β Entropy and the Second Law of Thermodynamics: Problem 56
Figure 20.15 gives the force magnitude $F$ versus stretch distance $x$ for a rubber band, with the scale of the $F$ axis set by $F_s = 1.50$ N and the scale of the $x$ axis set by $x_s = 3.50$ cm. The temperature is $2.00^{\circ}\text{C}$. When the rubber band is stretched by $x = 1.70$ cm, at what rate does the entropy of the rubber band change during a small additional stretch?
