Work Step by Step

$$\color{blue}{\bf [a]}$$For an $RC$ circuit, the resistor voltage is given by $$V_R=\dfrac{\varepsilon_0R}{\sqrt{R^2+X_C^2}}$$ where $X_C=1/\omega C$; $$V_R=\dfrac{\varepsilon_0R}{\sqrt{R^2+\dfrac{1}{\omega^2 C^2}}}$$ $$V_R=\dfrac{\varepsilon_0 }{\sqrt{1+\dfrac{1}{\omega^2 R^2C^2}}}$$ where $\omega=2\pi f$; $$V_R=\dfrac{\varepsilon_0 }{\sqrt{1+\dfrac{1}{4\pi^2 f^2 R^2C^2}}}$$ Plug the known; $$\boxed{V_R=\dfrac{(10)}{\sqrt{1+\dfrac{1}{4\pi^2 f^2 (100)^2(1.6\times 10^{-6})^2}}}}$$ $\bullet$ At $f=100$ Hz, $$V_R=\dfrac{(10)}{\sqrt{1+\dfrac{1}{4\pi^2 (100)^2 (100)^2(1.6\times 10^{-6})^2}}}=\color{red}{\bf 1.00}\;\rm V$$ $\bullet$ At $f=300$ Hz, $$V_R=\dfrac{(10)}{\sqrt{1+\dfrac{1}{4\pi^2 (300)^2 (100)^2(1.6\times 10^{-6})^2}}}=\color{red}{\bf 2.89}\;\rm V$$ $\bullet$ At $f=1000$ Hz, $$V_R=\dfrac{(10)}{\sqrt{1+\dfrac{1}{4\pi^2 (1000)^2 (100)^2(1.6\times 10^{-6})^2}}}=\color{red}{\bf 7.09}\;\rm V$$ $\bullet$ At $f=3000$ Hz, $$V_R=\dfrac{(10)}{\sqrt{1+\dfrac{1}{4\pi^2 (3000)^2 (100)^2(1.6\times 10^{-6})^2}}}=\color{red}{\bf 9.49}\;\rm V$$ $\bullet$ At $f=10,000$ Hz, $$V_R=\dfrac{(10)}{\sqrt{1+\dfrac{1}{4\pi^2 (10,000)^2 (100)^2(1.6\times 10^{-6})^2}}}=\color{red}{\bf 9.95}\;\rm V$$ $$\color{blue}{\bf [b]}$$ Plugging the five points we got, to draw the $V_R$ versus $f$ graph. $\bullet$ $\rm (100\;Hz,1.00\;V)$ $\bullet$ $\rm (300\;Hz,2.89\;V)$ $\bullet$ $\rm (1000\;Hz,7.09\;V)$ $\bullet$ $\rm (3000\;Hz,9.49\;V)$ $\bullet$ $\rm (10000\;Hz,9.95\;V)$
