Explanation / Answer

Since electric field is negative gradient of potential and the electric field is directed in positive x direction, therefore, the potential is increasing in the negative x direction.

so,

the Potential Energy will be:

U = q[V - V'] = q[Ed]

=> U = 1.6 x 10-19 x [600][3 - 1] = 1.92 x 10-16 J. [option b].
