Answer:

(A)

Explanation:

We know , electric potential energy between two charge particles of charges "q" and "Q" respectively is given by kqQ/r where r is the distance between them.

Since the two charged particles are moving apart, the distance between them (r) increases and thus electrical potential energy decreases.

How to find the period of a wave
____ [38]
The method to choose depends on what information you have, and
on what you can measure.  Here are a few possible methods:

-- Measure the period. Start your clock when one peak
of the wave passes you.  Stop the clock when the next
peak passes you.  The time between the two peaks is
the wave's period.

-- Divide the wave's wavelength by its speed.  That quotient
is the wave's period.

-- Use an electronic frequency meter to measure the wave's
frequency.  Then take its reciprocal (divide ' 1 ' by it).  The
result is the wave's period.
