Explanation / Answer

1) the electric field in the region is uniform and points from B to A.

2) E = - deltaV / d

E = -1/1 = - 1 v/ m

field is always from higher potential to lower potential.

3) to the left

4) F = q E

E is to the left and q is positive,

so force is to the left hence charge will move to the left.
