Can anyone explain what weak force could do? i’ve been reading comics and i don’t understand what they can do when it says “they could manipulate the weak force.” all i know that it’s about the four fundamental forces

Students in an introductory physics lab are performing an experiment with a parallel-plate capacitor made of two circular aluminum plates, each 11 cm in diameter, separated by 1.0 cm. how much charge can be added to each of the plates before a spark jumps between the two plates? for such flat electrodes, assume that value of 3×106n/c of the field causes a spark.
