The electric potential at a place is varying as $V = \frac{1}{2}(y^2 - 4x) \text{ V}$. Then the electric field at $x = 1 \text{ m}$ and $y = 1 \text{ m}$ is

  • A
    $2 \hat{i} + \hat{j} \text{ V m}^{-1}$
  • B
    $-2 \hat{i} + \hat{j} \text{ V m}^{-1}$
  • C
    $2 \hat{i} - \hat{j} \text{ V m}^{-1}$
  • D
    $-2 \hat{i} + 2 \hat{j} \text{ V m}^{-1}$
