Assertion: In the electric field E=(4i^+4j^) N/C\mathbf{E}=(4\hat{i}+4\hat{j})\,\text{N/C}, the electric potential at A(4 m,0)A(4\,\text{m},0) is greater than the electric potential at B(0,4 m)B(0,4\,\text{m}). Reason: Electric field lines always travel from higher potential to lower potential. (A) Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion. (B) Both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion. (C) Assertion is true but Reason is false. (D) Assertion is false but Reason is true.
