Question

The fundamental thermodynamic relation for a rubber band is given by dU = TdS + τdL, where T is the absolute temperature, S is the entropy, τ is the tension in the rubber band, and L is the length of the rubber band. Which one of the following relations is CORRECT: 

The correct answer is

\(\left(\dfrac{\partial T}{\partial L}\right)_S = \left(\dfrac{\partial \tau}{\partial S}\right)_L\)

From U(S,L), \(T=(\partial U/\partial S)_L\) and \(\tau=(\partial U/\partial L)_S\). Equality of mixed second derivatives gives \((\partial T/\partial L)_S=(\partial\tau/\partial S)_L\).
