Potential difference and power — practice question

In the diagram, the two points $P$ and $Q$ are positioned on a circle of radius $r$ so that they are $90^\circ$ apart. A positive point charge at the centre of the circle produces an electric field of magnitude $E$ at both $P$ and $Q$. Which expression gives the work done when a unit positive charge is moved from $P$ to $Q$?

  • A$0$
  • B$E \times r$
  • C$E \times \left(\frac{\pi r}{2}\right)$
  • D$E \times (\pi r)$
