It is believed that a large electric fish known as Torpedo occidentalis uses electricity to shock its victims. A typical fish can deliver a potential difference of 0.30 kV for a duration of 1.8 ms. This pulse delivers charge at a rate of 17 C/s.

(a) What is the rate at which this work is done by the electric organs during a pulse?

(b) What is the total amount of work done during one pulse?
