When a charge is released in an electric field, it moves from a point of potential

Explanation:

Protons/positive charges will move from higher potentials to lower potentials

While Electrons/Negative charges move from lower potentials to higher potential

Normally, electrons are negatively charged hence they tend to be repelled by the electrons and attracted by protons.

not too sure thinking it will always be directed towards the centre of the earth. could be wrong not sure
