If the potential cannot be zero, explain why. If the potential can be zero, what a special relationship must the charges have?

A cube has point charges at all corners. No two charges have the same value; all are unique. Is it possible for the electric potential at the center of the cube to be zero? (Assume the point charge definition of potential in which V = 0 at infinity.) If the potential cannot be zero, explain why. If the potential can be zero, what a special relationship must the charges have? |
