For a simple RC circuit which of the following statements is correct regarding this graph? (Select all that apply.)

The positive values represent the voltage across the resistor and the negative values represent the voltage across the capacitor.

During the discharging process the current flows through the resistor in the opposite direction and therefore the potential difference across the resistor will be negative.

The positive values represent the potential difference across the resistor during the charging process.

During the charging process the current flows through the resistor in the opposite direction and therefore the potential difference across the resistor will be negative.

The positive values represent the voltage across the capacitor and the negative values represent the voltage across the resistor.

Explanation / Answer

During the discharging process the current flows through the resistor in the opposite direction and therefore the potential difference across the resistor will be negative

and

the positive values represent the potential difference across the resistor during the charging process
