What does a High Time Constant for RC circuit mean

Voltage across C for a High Time Constant RC Circuit

It's a simple RC Series circuit, with voltage being measured across the Capacitor. Input voltage is of pulse type with the following Parameters

  • V_on=5V
  • V_off=0V
  • Pulse Duration=20 ms(On Time)
  • Time Period=60ms(Off+On Time)

And RC are as Follows

  • R=1M
  • C=10u

And how do I calculate the approximate steady state value ~1.67V ?

PS: I could not use the circuitlab simulator as it has only a square pulse input signal
