Expert Answer:
Electric field is a conservative force
therefore, the Potential difference between A and C would be same as Potential between A and B
Potential difference A and B
= E x l(AB)
= E x 4
= 4E Volt
Potential difference reduces the direction of Electric field
therefore A will be at more potential
Potential difference A and B
= E x l(AB)
= E x 4
= 4E Volt
Potential difference reduces the direction of Electric field
therefore A will be at more potential
