Solution
The correct option is B Assuming AC starts with positive voltage. When there is a +ve voltage across input, then the capacitor starts charging, trying to reach saturation value. When -ve voltage of AC appears across input, the capacitor starts discharging. This process of charging and discharging keeps happening alternatively.
