As electron moves away from the nucleus, its potential energy

Assertion(A): When a proton with certain energy moves from low potetial to high potential then its KE decreases. Reason (R ) :In a given electric field accerleration of a charged particle is directly propotional to specific charge.

Given below are two statements labelled as Assertion (A) and Reason (R) Assertion (A): An electron has a high potential energy when it is at a location associated with a more negative value of potential, and a low potential energy when at a location associated with a more positive potential. Reason (R):Electrons move from a region of higher potential to region of lower potential. Select the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
