When an object with a negative charge is moved from point A to point B through an external electrical field, it gains electrical potential energy. When an object with positive charge is moved from point A to point B though the same field, it loses electrical potential energy. Which of the following statements is true? Select all that apply.
A:Because the positive and negative charges cancel out, the potential difference between A and B is zero (that is, VB = VA).
B:The positively charged object moves through a negative potential difference between A and B (that is, VB - VA < 0).
C:The negatively charged object moves through a negative potential difference between A and B (that is, VB - VA < 0).
D: The negatively charged object moves through a positive potential difference between A and B (that is, VB - VA > 0).
E:The positively charged object moves through a positive potential difference from A and B (that is, VB - VA > 0).
-An explanation would be appreciated, thank you!

to 
and as 
so both of them move through a negative potential difference.
