When the polymer molecule is immersed into a heat bath, it
tends to put itself into a randomly coiled configuration since these configurations has higher
entropy. There are many more such configurations when the molecule is short compared to when
it is stretched into an extended configuration. The statistical tendency to reach a maximal entropy
state then generates the elastic force of a polymer, which is a typical entropic force.
