In a region, the potential is represented by $$V\left( {x,y,z} \right) = 6x - 8xy - 8y + 6yz,$$ where $$V$$ is in volts and $$x,y,z$$ are in metres. The electric force experienced by a charge of $$2C$$ situated at point $$\left( {1,1,1} \right)$$ is
Four point charges $$ - Q, - q,2q$$ and $$2Q$$ are placed, one at each corner of the square. The relation between $$Q$$ and $$q$$ for which the potential at the centre of the square is zero, is
