Each shot of the laser gun most favored by Rosa the Closer, the intrepid vigilante of the lawless 22nd century, is powered by thedischarge of a 1.17 F capacitor charged to 64.1 kV. Rosa rightly reckons that she can enhance the effect of each laser pulse byincreasing the electric potential energy of the charged capacitor. She could do this by replacing the capacitor's filling, whosedielectric constant is 407, with one possessing a dielectric constant of 967.Find the electric potential energy U, of the original capacitor when it is charged.U1 :JCalculate the electric potential energy U2 of the upgraded capacitor when it is charged.U2 =J
