Section I0.6 notes that as causes of resistance, ionic vibrations give way to lattice imperfections at around 10 K. A typical spring constant between atoms in a solid is of order of magnitude 103 N/m, and typical spacing is nominally 10-10 m. Estimate how much the vibrating atoms' locations might deviate, as a fraction of their nominal separation, at 10 K.
