Point A is at a lower electrical potential than point B. An electron between them on the line joining them will

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option B
Since we know that electric currents move from a higher potential or a lower potential. Also, electrons move in the direction opposite to electric current. So the electron on the line joining two points A and B will move from lower to higher potential i.e, it will move towards B.

electron being a negatively charged moves from negative end to positive and positive plate is always at higher potential than a negative plate.therefore electron moves from lower potential(-ve) to higher potential end(+VE)

Electron flow from higher potential to lower potential . here B have higher potential.. Hence electron moves towards A
