In a series of $2n$ observations half of them equals $a$ and remaining half equals $-a$. If the standard deviation of observations is $2$ then $\left| a \right|$ equals

Let $n \geq 3$. A list of numbers $x_1, x, \ldots, x_n$ has mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$. A new list of numbers $y_1, y_2, \ldots, y_n$ is made as follows $y_1=\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, y_2=\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}$ and $y_j=x_j$ for $j=3,4, \ldots, n$.

The mean and the standard deviation of the new list are $\hat{\mu}$ and $\hat{\sigma}$. Then, which of the following is necessarily true?
