The plates of a capacitor are charged to a potential difference of $320 \, volts$ and are then connected across a resistor. The potential difference across the capacitor decays exponentially with time. After $1 $ second the potential difference between the plates of the capacitor is $240 \, volts$, then after $2$ and $3$ seconds the potential difference between the plates will be
  • A$200$ and $180\, V$
  • B$180$ and $135\, V$
  • C$160$ and $80 \,V$
  • D$140$ and $20 \,V$
