Four-point +ve charges of the same magnitude (Q) are placed at four corners of a rigid square frame as shown in the figure. The plane of the frame is perpendicular to Z-axis. If a –ve point charge is placed at a distance z away from the above frame (z<<L) then
(1) – ve charge oscillates along the Z-axis.
(2) It moves away from the frame
(3) It moves slowly towards the frame and stays in the plane of the frame
(4) It passes through the frame only once.
