A cube of gold primarily at a temperature of 21.9°C which is 6.70 mm on a side is joined across the terminals of a 17.0-μF capacitor which primarily consists of a potential difference of 110.0 V between its plates.
i) What time is needed to completely discharge the capacitor? The capacitor is completely discharged if the charge is less than 0.01 % that roughly corresponds to a time of 10τ.
ii) If the capacitor is completely discharged, determine the temperature (in °C) of the gold cube?
