Physics Help
I'll first give the problem [url=http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll92/cb000/physicshelp_zpsb649b48b.png]here[/url].
The text in green is the problem, and the stuff written in orange includes my work. I know the partition function, the Debye Temperature, and how to get the mean pressure from the partition function. I've made the integral approximation for the sum, and I've juggled some substitutions to get the integral in a form without too many extraneous constants. But when it comes down to doing the actual derivative, it seems that I have to do some calculus magic to get it in some coherent form. I'm not really a mathematician, so I'm stuck here. Anyone care to help?

Your conversation is really funny, but also interesting.
the answer is C.
[quote=Irony]What year physics is this? 4th?[/quote]
Could be either 3rd or 4th. This course was among the list of courses that physics majors have to choose from after they complete the required core courses. So depending on the student's path, this course can be taken during either the 3rd or 4th year.

Well, this is beyond my capabilities.
