In the series RC circuit shown in figure the voltage across C starts increasing when the d.c. source is switched on. The rate of increase of voltage across C at the instant just after the switch is closed
(i.e., at
), will be

zero
infinity
RC
1/RC
Explanation:

At t < 0 : switch is open so the capacitor is uncharged.
Since, voltage across capacitor cannot change instantaneously.

Just after t = 0, current in capacitor

Applying KVL at 

Putting the value of
