Entropic forces and friction

(c)2017 van Putten 1 Today

Gibbs’ principle

Entropic forces and applications to DNA stretching

DNA

The ultimate data-storage medium storage medium

Friction

Mobility from the van ’t Hoff equation

Macroscopic friction with air and solids

(c)2017 van Putten 2 Gibbs’ principle

First law of thermodynamics: dW = −PdV = dE − TdS

Exchange associated with mechanical work

Gibbs’ principle: compare neighbouring states at same E

−dE = PdV − TdS = 0

E : total mass-energy as measured at infinity

(c)2017 van Putten 3 To heat what is cold …

Two equivalent ways

Warm the cold by heat conduction

Bring cold material into a heat bath

(c)2017 van Putten 4 Heat the cold (I): heat quanta jumping to cold

hot cold

contact: heat quanta jump to cold from hot

f : entropic force, calculate using Gibbs’ principle

6 Entropic force in a rope

Length of rope outside the heat bath: x dW = −Fdx : − Fdx − TdS = dE Entropically dS favorable dE = 0 : F = −T m dx m

(van Putten & Levinson 2012 Cambridge University Press, Ch.10) Isothermal process when the heat bath is arbitrarily large

Rope has a certain #DOF per unit length (2 x #molecules / length)

Rope inside the heat bath is thermalized at kBT

Thermalized #DOF in the rope is proportional to length inside heat bath

13 Bits in a rope: DNA

Organic basis

Deoxyribonucleic acid

Phosphate group glues nucleotides (joining sugar molecules) into single string

Pairs of such strings join to form a helix upon joining individual base pairs

ORIGIN 1930s: deoxyribonucleic from a blend of deoxyribose and nucleic acid nucleotide: nucleoside linked to a phosphate group

Physical length DNA: o few ×109 × few Α ≈ few m

(c)2017 van Putten 19 Mobility Drift velocity in a random walk due to an external force:

f : vd = µ f

Pressure gradient (force per unit volume): Px = cf van ’t Hoff’s partial pressure difference: [P] = [c]kBT :

Px = cxkBT

Px cf cx = = kBT kBT

(c)2017 van Putten 20 Diffusion

Diffusion equation: ∂t c + ∂x (vdc) = Dcxx

local time rate-of-change + gradient(concentration current) = molecular diffusion

Stationary solutions (drift balanced by diffusion):

∂x (vc) = Dcxx : vdc = Dcx

An emergent property when interacting with a medium consisting of a large number of particles, i.e., a solid surface, air, etc.
