A uniform electric field has magnitude E and is directed in the negative x-direction. The potential difference between point a (at x = 0.60 m) and %3D point b (at x = 0.90 m) is 240 V. A negative point charge q = -0.200 mC moves from a to b. Calculate the work done on the point charge by the electric field.
