Answer: option 1 : the electric potential will decrease with an increase in y
Explanation: The electric potential (V) is related to distance (in this case y) by the formulae below
V = kq/y
Where k = 1/4πε0
Where V = electric potential,
k = electric constant = 9×10^9,
y = distance of potential relative to a reference point, ε0 = permittivity of free space
q = magnitude of electronic charge = 1.609×10^-19 c
From the formulae, we can see that q and k are constants, only potential (V) and distance (y) are variables.
We have that
V = k/y
We see the potential(V) is inversely proportional to distance (y).
This implies that an increase in distance results to a decreasing potential and a decrease in distance results to an increase in potential.
This fact makes option 1 the correct answer

There is approximately 2.54 cm that equals to 1 inch. So your closet answer would be the first choice. :)
Speed of light
According to Einstein, the speed of light is constant in all points of reference. In addition, he pointed out the speed of light is the maximum speed known since in practice one can never catch up with the beam of light. This is explained by his theory of relativity.
