Charge $Q$ is given a displacement $\vec{r} = a\hat{i} + b\hat{j}$ in an electric field $\vec{E} = E_1\hat{i} + E_2\hat{j}$. The work done is

  • A
    $Q(E_1a + E_2b)$
  • B
    $Q\sqrt{(E_1a)^2 + (E_2b)^2}$
  • C
    $Q(E_1 + E_2)\sqrt{a^2 + b^2}$
  • D
    $Q\sqrt{E_1^2 + E_2^2}\sqrt{a^2 + b^2}$
