A charge is uniformly distributed on the circumference of a disc, and the potential at its centre is \(5\) volt. If the charge was uniformly distributed on the surface of this disc, the potential at a point \(P\) on its axis, at a distance equal to the disc's radius from its centre, equals:
1. \(10\) V
2. \(5 \sqrt 2\) V
3. \(10 \sqrt 2\) V
4. \(10 (\sqrt {2} -1)\) V
