Question: (a) Using the result of Problem 21 and 7.00 eV for copper's Fermi energy, determine how much energy would be released by the conduction electrons

(a) Using the result of Problem 21 and 7.00 eV for copper's Fermi energy, determine how much energy would be released by the conduction electrons in a copper coin with mass 3.10 g if we could suddenly turn off the Pauli exclusion principle.
(b) For how long would this amount of energy light a 100 W lamp?
