An alternating voltage source is connected to a series \(RC\) circuit. Consider two situations:
1. When the capacitor is air-filled. 
2. When the capacitor is mica filled. 

If the current through the resistor is \(I\) and the voltage across the capacitor is \(V\), then:
1. \(V_a < V_b\)
2. \(V_a > V_b\)
3. \(i_a > i_b\)
4. \(V_a = V_b\)
