In the figure shown the dotted lines represent equipotential lines of an electric field. A positively charged particle is placed at point $$\mathrm{A}$$ (but kept fixed at that point) and later placed at point B (again kept fixed). Which of the following statements best describes the force that the particle feels in this electric field. The force is directed to the left and it is the same magnitude at point $$A$$ and point $$B$$. The force is directed to the right, the force is greater at point B than at point $$A$$. The force is directed to the right and it is the same magnitude at point $$A$$ and point $$B$$. The force is directed to the left, the force is greater at point A than at point B. The force is directed to the right, the force is greater at point $$A$$ than at point $$B$$. The force is directed to the left, the force is greater at point B than at point A.
