All capacitors store charge.If we connect a resistance in series with the capacitor, then it will take some fininte time to get fully chaged.Time constant is the time required to charge the capacitor, through the resistor, by ≈ 63.2 percent of the final value. It can be mathematically denoted as the product of R and C. Here in this this circuit as we turn on the power and move the s2 towards v2, the cpacitor gets charged upto v(applied voltage), as we move the s2 towards v3, the capacitor starts discharging and led starts glowing. By observing the led we can get the idea of time constant of the capacitor.
