In the shown circuit involving a resistance Romega , capacitor of capacitance C farad and an ideal cell of emf E volts, the capacitor is initially uncharged and the key is in position 1. At t = 0, second the key is pushed to position 2 for t_(0)=RC second and then key is pushed back to position 1 for t_(0)=RC seconds. This process is repeated again and again. Assume the time taken to push key from position 1 to 2 and vice versa to be negligible. Then the variation of charge on capacitor with time is best represented by
