Answer:
The correct option is (B).
Explanation:
The electric potential is the amount of work energy needed to move a unit of electric charge from a reference point to the specific point in an electric field. The electric potential due to a point charge is given by :
[tex]V=\dfrac{kQ}{r}[/tex]
Where
k is the electrostatic constant
Q is the electric charge
r is the distance from the charge
So, a positive electric charge in a region of changing electric potential will move in the direction of increasing potential.
