Capacitor A and capacitor B both have the same voltage across
their plates. However, the energy of capacitor A can
melt m kilograms of ice at 0 °C, while the
energy of capacitor B can boil away the same amount of water at 100
°C. The capacitance of capacitor A is 6.5 μF. What is the
capacitance of capacitor B?
Please note that for water, the latent heat of fusion
is Lf = 33.5 x
104 J/kg, and the latent heat of vaporization
is Lv = 22.6 x
105 J/kg
