Circuit schematic with battery \(\mathcal{E}\), switch \(S\), resistors \(R_1\) and \(R_2\), and capacitor \(C\).
Circuit schematic with battery \(\mathcal{E}\), switch \(S\), resistors \(R_1\) and \(R_2\), and capacitor \(C\).
An electrical circuit consists of an ideal battery of emf \(\mathcal{E}\), an open switch \(S\), two identical resistors of resistance \(R_1 = R_2 = R\), and an initially uncharged capacitor of capacitance \(C\), arranged as shown in the diagram. At time \(t = 0\), the switch \(S\) is closed.

Which of the following graphs best represents the electric potential difference \(\Delta V_C\) across the capacitor as a function of time \(t\)?
