Q. A positively charged particle is released from rest in a uniform electric field. The electric potential energy of the charge

Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance

Solution:

In a uniform electric field, when a positively charged particle is released from rest, it moves along the electric field, that is from higher potential to lower potential. Therefore, electric potential energy of charge decreases
