Physics Question on Electric Field

Figure shows three points A, B and C in a region of uniform electric field E\overrightarrow{E}. The line AB is perpendicular and BC is parallel to the field lines. Then which of the following holds good? (VA, VB and VC represent the electric potential at points A, B and C respectively)
Figure shows three points A, B and C in a region

A

VA=VB = VC

B

VA=VB > VC

C

VA=VB < VC

D

VA>VB = VC

Answer

VA=VB > VC

Explanation

Solution

The correct option is (B): VA=VB > VC
