The plates of a capacitor are charged to a potential difference of 320 volt and are then connected across a resistor. The potential difference across the capacitor decays exponentially with time. After 1 sec the potential difference between the plates of the capacitor is 240 volts. what is the potential difference between the plates after 2 s?

A

200 V and 180 V

B

180 V and 135 V

C

160 V and 80 V

D

140 V and 20 V
