Points A through D form a square in a uniform E-field. The horizontal sides of the square (C to D and A to B) are parallel with the field and the vertical sides of the square (A to C and B to D) are perpendicular to the field.
Thee particles (1, 2, and 3) move between points in the field, as shown.
If Particle 1 has charge +3q, Particle 2 has charge -q, and Particle 3 has charge -2q, which of the following statements are TRUE? You may select more than one. Assume all statements refer to the entire motion of each particle from beginning to end, not to any individual segment of their motion.
Electrical potential energy is lost in the case of Particle 2.
Particle 2 passes through a negative electrical potential difference.
Particle 3 passes through a positive electrical potential difference.
All three particles pass through the same electrical potential difference.
Electrical potential energy is lost in the case of Particle 1.
Particles 1 and 2 pass through the same electrical potential difference.
Electrical potential energy is gained in the case of Particle 3.
