A) decreases
B) increases
C) remains the same
D) may increase or decrease
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
We know that the electric potential energy of a system of charges is the work (W) that has been done in bringing those charges from infinity to near each other to from the system. \[W=qV\]. Where q is charge and V is potential. Hence, when positive charge is shifted from a low potential to a high potential region, the electric potential energy increases.
