A certain parallel-plate capacitor is filled with a dielectric for which K = 6.50. The area of each plate is 0.0524 m², and the plates are
separated by 2.97 mm. The capacitor will fail (short out and burn up) if the electric field between the plates exceeds 179 KN/C. What is
the maximum energy that can be stored in the capacitor?

Calculate the change in a 5-m long copper wire when its temperature changes by 120 oF. Thecoefficient of thermal expansion for copper is approximately 17 x 10-61/oC. Express your answerin SI units.
A certain brand of hotdog cooker works by applying a potential difference of 146 V across opposite ends of a hot dog and allowing it to
cook by means of the thermal energy produced. The current is 12.8 A, and the energy required to cook one hot dog is 60.8 kJ. If the
rate at which energy is supplied is unchanged, how long will it take to cook three hot dogs simultaneously?
