A series RC circuit consists of a 12 V battery, a 5 kΩ resistor, and a 10 μF capacitor. At time t = 0, a switch is closed, and the initially uncharged capacitor begins to charge. Which of the following expressions represents the voltage across the capacitor as a function of time t?

A

12e^(-0.05t)

B

12(1-e^(-0.05t))

C

12(1-e^(-t/0.05))

D

12e^(-t/0.05)
