In the circuit shown here, the point '$C$' is kept connected to point '$A$' till the current flowing through the circuit becomes constant. Afterward, suddenly, point '$C$' is disconnected from point '$A$' and connected to point '$B$' at time $t = 0$. The ratio of the voltage across the resistance $(V_R)$ and the inductor $(V_L)$ at $t = L/R$ will be equal to:

  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $-1$
  • C
    $\frac{1 - e}{e}$
  • D
    $\frac{e}{1 - e}$
