As a proton moves in the direction of the electric field lines,
|
it is moving from low potential to high potential and gaining electric potential energy.
|
|
it is moving from low potential to high potential and losing electric potential energy.
|
|
it is moving from high potential to low potential and gaining electric potential energy.
|
|
it is moving from high potential to low potential and losing electric potential energy.

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -its potential energy increases and its electric potential increases.
Detailed explanation-2: -But, when the proton is set in the direction of the electric field, it starts to accelerate and as result, the speed of the proton also increases. This causes the kinetic energy to increase as well.
Detailed explanation-3: -The electric force acts on the positive charge in the direction of the electric field, therefore, the proton (positive charge) moves from high electric potential to low electric potential.
Detailed explanation-4: -Its kinetic energy will decreases and potential energy will increase.
