{'device': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'tv set': [0, 1, 0, 1], 'conductor': [0, 0, 1, 2], 'radio': [0, 1, 0, 3], 'capacitor': [0, 0, 1, 3], 'computer': [1, 0, 0, 1], 'inductor': [0, 0, 1, 2], 'electric charge': [0, 0, 1, 1], 'resistor': [0, 0, 1, 0]}

The correct answer is option 3, capacitor.

A capacitor is an electronic component that is used in various electronic devices such as TV sets, computers, and radio sets for storing electric charge. It is designed to hold electrical energy and release it when needed.

A resistor, option 1, is a passive component that is used to resist or limit the flow of electric current in a circuit. It does not store electric charge.

An inductor, option 2, is another passive component that is used to store energy in a magnetic field. It does not store electric charge directly.

A conductor, option 4, is a material that allows the flow of electric current. While conductors are essential for the operation of electronic devices, they do not store electric charge.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 3, capacitor, as it is specifically used for storing electric charge.
