Chapter 5.4, Problem 2dT

Suppose the particle travels from point W to point Y along the path WXZY as shownChapter 5.4, Problem 2dT, Suppose the particle travels from point W to point Y along the path WXZY as shown 1. Compare the , example  1

1. Compare the work done by the electric field when the particle travels from point W to point X to that done when the particle travels from point Z to point Y. Explain

What is the total work done on the particle by the electric field as it moves along the path WXZY?

2. Suppose the particle travels from W to Y along the arc shown. Is the work done on the particle by the electric field positive, negative, or zero? Explain using force and displacement vectors.
