3.5 joules of energy are supplied to each coulomb of charge
The capacitor stores 1000 C of charge when the potential
difference across the capacitor is 1 volt.

The flash rate will decrease because there is a smaller charging
current. This means it takes longer for the capacitor to reach 80 V
so the lamp is off for longer.
The resistance of the material decreases
Electrons
The energy gap between the valance band and the conduction
band in a metal is less that the energy gap between the valance
band and the conduction band in a semiconductor.
