Question

Four charges of 1μC, 2μC, 3μC and 6μC are placed one at each corner of the square of side 1 m. The square lies in the x - y plane with its centre at the origin.
  1. The electric potential is zero at the origin
  2. The electric potential is zero everywhere along the x-axis only of the sides of the square are parallel to x and y axis
  3. The electric potential is zero everywhere along the z-axis for any orientation of the square in the x-y plane.
  4. The electric potential is not zero along the z-axis except at the origin.
