A positive charge is moved from \(A\) to \(B\) in each diagram. Choose the correct statement from the options given below:
1. | in all four cases, the work done is the same. |
2. | minimum work is required to move \(q\) in figure \(\mathrm{(a)}.\) |
3. | maximum work is required to move \(q\) in figure \(\mathrm{(b)}.\) |
4. | maximum work is required to move \(q\) in figure \(\mathrm{(c)}.\) |
