Solve the all parts of given problem:

Problem: A capacitor consists of two closely spaced metal conductors of large area, separated by a thin insulating foil. It has an electrical capacity of 3800 × 10^-6C/V (F) and is charged to a potential difference of 60.0 V.

Part I: Calculate the amount of energy stored in the capacitor.

(in J)

Part II: Calculate the charge on this capacitor when the electrical energy stored in the capacitor is 9.85 J.

(in C)

Part III: If the two plates of the capacitor have their separation increased by a factor of 5 while the charge on the plates remains constant, by what factor is the energy stored in the capacitor increased?

Part IV: What is the energy stored in the 8.5 μF capacitor of a heart defibrillator charged to 8.50×103 V?

(in J)

Part V: Find the amount of stored charge.

(in C)

I don't just need an answer, work and explanations/walkthrough would be much appreciated! Thanks.
