Answer:

Left

Step-by-step explanation:

The region surrounded by an electric charge is called electric field. Mathematically, it can be written as :


E=(F)/(q)

The direction of electric field for positive charge is outwards while for negative charge it is inward.

According to question, we have to write the direction of electric field at a point directly to the left of a positive charge, Q

So, the direction of charge Q is in left direction.
