Explanation / Answer

First option is correct.

Explanation:

First of all you have to know that current is always flow from higher potential to lower potential.

Now in the given circuit current direction is mentioned from 'a' to 'b'.so at point 'a' potential must be greater than at point 'b'.

2nd thing you have to know that the value of current is always same untill unless current is not divided into another branch...i.e in series current is always same. also as we know that current is directely propertional to charge.

since current is same(becouse current is not divided) in given circuit hence charge moving or charge velocity
