A proton is moved in the direction opposite to an external E-field. Choose the statement that best describes what is happening to the proton. A) it is moving from high potential to low potential and electrical energy of a system consisting of the proton and the electric field is increasing. B) it is moving from low potential to high potential and electrical energy of a system consisting of the proton and the electric field is decreasing. C) it is moving from low potential to high potential and the electrical energy of a system consisting of the proton and the electric field is increasing. D) it is moving from high potential to low potential and electrical potential energy of a system consisting of the proton and the electric field is decreasing.
