Four paths (1, 2, 3, and 4) represent different trajectories along which a particle with positive charge \(+q\) moves in a region containing parallel equipotential surfaces at \(20\text{ V}\), \(40\text{ V}\), and \(60\text{ V}\).

- Path 1 goes directly from the \(20\text{ V}\) surface to the \(60\text{ V}\) surface.
- Path 2 follows a curved trajectory from the \(60\text{ V}\) surface to the \(20\text{ V}\) surface.
- Path 3 follows a winding trajectory from the \(60\text{ V}\) surface to the \(40\text{ V}\) surface.
- Path 4 completes a closed loop that starts and ends on the \(40\text{ V}\) surface.

Which of the following correctly ranks the work \(W\) done by the electric field on the particle along each path from greatest to least?
