$A$ uniform electric field pointing in the positive $x$-direction exists in a region. Let $A$ be the origin,$B$ be the point on the $x$-axis at $x = +1 \, cm$,and $C$ be the point on the $y$-axis at $y = +1 \, cm$. Then the potentials at the points $A$,$B$,and $C$ satisfy

  • A
    $V_A < V_B$
  • B
    $V_A > V_B$
  • C
    $V_A < V_C$
  • D
    $V_A > V_C$
