→Six point charges, each of the same magnitude $q$, are arranged in different manners as shown in Column $II$. In each case, a point $\mathrm{M}$ and a line $\mathrm{PQ}$ passing through $\mathrm{M}$ are shown. Let $E$ be the electric field and $V$ be the electric potential at $\mathrm{M}$ (potential at infinity is zero) due to the given charge distribution when it is at rest.
