Question
Suppose a system of two particles, represented by circles, have the possibility of occupying energy states
with 0, 10, or 20 J. Collectively, the particles must have 20 J of total energy. One way the two particles can
distribute themselves is:
20 J
10 J
00
0 J
Are there any other energetically equivalent configurations?
Give your answer in the form (x;y) in Joules without the units. If there is more than one answer,
separate them by commas. If there is no answer, enter none.
