A capacitor in an RC circuit is charged, storing 1.25 mJ of energy. What is the time required to discharge this capacitor (say, to 1% of its initial charge), as compared to the time required to discharge (to 1%) an identical capacitor in an identical RC circuit which has stored 2.5 mJ of energy instead?



twice the time



half the time
