The figure shows the electric lines of force emerging from a charged body. If the electric field at \(A\) and \(B\) are \(E_A\) and \(E_B\) respectively and if the displacement between \(A\) and \(B\) is \(r,\) then:

1. \(E_A>E_B\)
2. \(E_A<E_B\)
3. \(E_{A} = \frac{E_{B}}{r}\)
4. \(E_{A} = \frac{E_{B}}{r^{2}}\)
