### Problem Statement for Educational Purposes

#### Question (a)
What is the energy (in Joules) stored in the 40.0 μF capacitor of a heart defibrillator charged to \( 8.90 \times 10^3 \) V?

> [Your answer here] J

#### Question (b)
Find the amount of stored charge (in milliCoulombs).

> [Your answer here] mC

---

This exercise involves calculating the energy stored in a capacitor and finding the charge stored within it based on given parameters. To solve these problems, the following formulas are utilized:

- **Energy (E) in a capacitor**:
  \[
  E = \frac{1}{2} C V^2
  \]
  where \( C \) is the capacitance and \( V \) is the voltage.

- **Charge (Q) stored in a capacitor**:
  \[
  Q = C \times V
  \]
  where \( C \) is the capacitance and \( V \) is the voltage.

Use these formulas to calculate and fill in the blanks for the energy and stored charge.
