In a certain charge distribution, all points having zero potential can be joined by a circle \(S.\) The 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
