To solve the problem of how much work will be done on a charge \( q \) when it is displaced in a uniform electric field \( \vec{E} \) that is parallel to the y-axis, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Direction of the Electric Field The electric field \( \vec{E} \) is given to be parallel to the y-axis. This means that the electric field vector can be represented as: \[ \vec{E} = E \hat{j} \] where \( E \) is the magnitude of the electric field and \( \hat{j} \) is the unit vector in the y-direction. ...
