$A$ charged capacitor discharges through a resistance $R$ with time constant $\tau$. The two are now placed in series across an $AC$ source of angular frequency $\omega = \frac{1}{\tau}$. The impedance of the circuit will be-

  • A
    $\frac{R}{\sqrt{2}}$
  • B
    $R$
  • C
    $\sqrt{2}R$
  • D
