### Capacitors and Charge Calculation**Problem Statement:**The capacitor in the figure has a capacitance of 21 µF (microfarads) and is initially uncharged. The battery provides a potential difference of 160 V (volts). After the switch \( S \) is closed, how much charge will pass through it?**Illustration Description:**- The figure illustrates a simple electric circuit consisting of a battery, a switch (\( S \)), and a capacitor (\( C \)).- The battery is connected in series with the switch and the uncharged capacitor.- Once the switch (\( S \)) is closed, the circuit is completed, and the capacitor will start to charge.**Calculation:**When the switch is closed, the charge (\( Q \)) on the capacitor can be calculated using the formula:\[ Q = C \times V \]where:- \( C \) is the capacitance of the capacitor (21 µF).- \( V \) is the potential difference provided by the battery (160 V).**Provide your answer:**- Number: [ ] Units: [ ]**Explanation:**To find the charge, multiply the capacitance by the potential difference:\[ Q = 21 \, \mu F \times 160 \, V \]After performing the multiplication, you will obtain the value of the charge \( Q \) in microcoulombs (µC).### Notes:- **Capacitors** are electronic components that store electric charge.- **Capacitance** (C) is a measure of a capacitor's ability to store charge, and it's expressed in farads (F).- **Voltage** (V) is the potential difference that drives the charge through the capacitor.Feel free to complete the calculation and input your answer in the provided fields.
