A flashing lamp in a Christmas earring is based on an RC discharge of a capacitor through its resistance. The effective duration of the flash lasts one time constant t = 0.280 s, during which it produces an average 0.460 W from an average 3.00 V. (Since average values are given for some quantities, the shape of the pulse profile is not needed.) (a) What energy (in J) does it dissipate? J (b) How much charge (in C) moves through the lamp? C (c) Find the capacitance (in F). F (d) What is the resistance (in 2) of the lamp? Ω
