Consider an AC circuit with only a capacitor of capacitance C, driven by an AC voltage V(t)

Question:

Consider an AC circuit with only a capacitor of capacitance C, driven by an AC voltage V(t) = V0 cosωt. Compute the average 〈|P|〉 of the absolute value of the rate of energy transfer back and forth from the power source to the capacitor. Compare to the apparent (= reactive) power for this system.
