AI Generated Solution

To find the potential difference \( V_A - V_B \) when a charge is moved in an electric field, we can use the relationship between work done and electric potential difference. Here are the steps to solve the problem: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Given Values**: - Charge \( Q = 10 \, C \) - Work done by the external agent \( W_{AB} = 100 \, J \) ...
