\sect{Baruch's A06.} Consider an ensemble of ${N}$ harmonic oscillators with an energy spectrum of each oscillator being ${\left(n+\frac{1}{2} \right)\hbar\omega , n=0, 1, 2, ...}$ \begin{itemize} \item [(a)] Evaluate the asymptotic expression for ${\Omega\left(E\right)}$, the number of ways in which a given energy ${E}$ can be distributed. \item [(a)] Consider these oscillators as classical and find the volume in phase space for the energy ${E}$. Compare the result to (a) and show that the phase space volume corresponding to one state is ${h^{N}}$. \\ \end{itemize} %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
