Consider the situation of the figure. The work done in taking a point charge from \(\mathrm{P}\) to \(\mathrm{A}\) is \(W_{\mathrm{A}}\) , from \(\mathrm{P}\) to \(\mathrm{B}\) is \(W_{\mathrm{B}}\) and from \(\mathrm{P}\) to \(\mathrm{C}\) is \(W_{\mathrm{C}}\). Then:

      

1. \(W_{\mathrm{A}}<W_{\mathrm{B}}<W_{\mathrm{C}}\) 2. \(W_{\mathrm{A}}>W_{\mathrm{B}}>W_{\mathrm{C}}\)
3. \(W_{\mathrm{A}}=W_{\mathrm{B}}=W_{\mathrm{C}}\) 4. none of these
