RC Discharging Circuit Curves

The rate of decay of the RC discharging curve is steeper at the beginning because the discharging rate is fastest at the start, but then tapers off exponentially as the capacitor looses charge at a slower rate. As the discharge continues, VC reduces resulting in less discharging current.
