There is a uniformly charged non conducting solid sphere made of material of dielectric constant one. If electric potential at infinity be zero, then the potential at its surface is $V$. If we take electric potential at its surface to be zero, then the potential at the centre will be

A charge $+q$ is fixed at each of the points $x = x_0,\,x = 3x_0,\,x = 5x_0$, .... upto $\infty $ on $X-$  axis and charge $-q$ is fixed on each of the points $x = 2x_0,\,x = 4x_0,\,x = 6x_0$, .... upto $\infty $ . Here $x_0$ is a positive constant. Take the potential at a point due to a charge $Q$ at a distance $r$ from it to be $\frac{Q}{{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}r}}$. Then the potential at the origin due to above system of charges will be
