17. Resistor thermodynamics

Thermal electrons in a resistor can be treated as a closed thermodynamic system where the electrons are interacting with the rest of the conductor held at finite constant temperature https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRev.32.110. Create an experiment which allows you to investigate the thermodynamical properties of such a system using an electronic signal. What thermodynamic quantities can you measure?
