What time is required to fully discharge the capacitor


A cube of gold (initially at a temperature of 20.5°C) that is 6.50 mm on a side is connected across the terminals of a 15.0-µF capacitor that initially has a potential difference of 120.0 V between its plates.

a) What time is required to fully discharge the capacitor? The capacitor is fully discharged when the charge is less than 0.01 % which roughly corresponds to a time of 10t.

b) When the capacitor is fully discharged, what is the temperature (in °C) of the gold cube?
