Figure shows the field lines of a point negative charge. In going from B to A, the kinetic energy of a small negative charge will.

A

Increase

B

Decrease

C

Remains constant

D

Data insufficient

Answer

Decrease

Explanation

Solution

: Due to force of repulsion on the negative charge, velocity decreases and hence the kinetic energy decreases in going from B to A.
