In a certain charge distribution, all points having zero potential can be joined by a circle S. Points inside S have positive potential, and points outside S have a negative potential. A positive charge, which is free to move, is placed inside S. What is the correct statement about S:
1. | It will remain in equilibrium | 2. | It can move inside S, but it cannot cross S |
3. | It must cross S at some time | 4. | It may move, but will ultimately return to its starting point |
