Four charges equal to - Q placed at the four corners of a sqare and a charge q is its centre. If the system is in equilibrium, the value of q is

(A ): A charge is lying at the centre of the line joining two similar charges each which are fixed. The system will be in equilibrium if that charge is one fourth of the similar charges. (R ): For charge to be in equilibrium, sum of the forces on charge due to rest of the two charges must be zero.
