The capacitor in the circuit above has capacitance, C. It is charged to a voltage, V, and then discharged through a resistor with resistance, R. The charge at any time, t, is given by

  1. (A)Q = \frac{C}{V} e^{-\frac{t}{RC}}
  2. (B)Q = \frac{V}{C} e^{-\frac{t}{RC}}
  3. (C)Q = C V e^{\frac{RC}{t}}
  4. (D)Q = C V e^{-\frac{t}{RC}}
