Compute each part of given question:
Question: Two 8.0-cm-diameter metal plates are 1.0cm apart is charged to ±12.5 nC. They are suddenly connected together by a 0.230-mm-diameter copper wire stretched taut from the center of one plate to the center of the other.
Part A: What is the maximum current in the wire?
(A)
Part B: Does the current increase with time, decrease with time, or remain steady?
Part C: Explain. (B.)
Part D: What is the total amount of energy dissipated in the wire?
(J)
I need help to determine the total amount of energy dissipated in the wire.
