Explanation / Answer

Initially, the buck is attracted leftward towards the negative charge. It will gain some momentum. As soon as it crosses the negative charge, it will feel an opposite force to its velocity due to charge configurations. Then it will come to rest after travelling some distance. Now it will start moving rightward. This process will continue forever. So, it will oscillate around the negative charge forever.
