Cascading RC circuit w/ DC voltage. How will capacitors charging time vary?


In the following schematic, will the RC time constant be the same for all capacitors using the equivalent resistance of all the resistors?

When I plug it into pspice or electronics work bench, it has that the First capacitors voltage as a function of time will always be twice as much as the 10th capacitor stage as a function of time.

I just dont know...

Either way, im only off by 5% in my theorietical and experimental calculations...just confused...
