Four point charges, each of $+ q$, are rigidly fixed at the four corners of a square planar soap film of side ' $a$ ' The surface tension of the soap film is $\gamma$. The system of charges and planar film are in equilibrium, and $a=k\left[\frac{q^2}{\gamma}\right]^{1 / N}$, where ' $k$ ' is a constant. Then $N$ is
