Six charges each +3q are placed at the corners of a regular hexagon of each side 'a'. The electric field at the center of the hexagon is:

  1. A \(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4 \pi \epsilon_0} \frac{ q }{ a ^2}\)
  2. B Zero
  3. C \(\frac{\sqrt{5}}{4 \pi \epsilon_0} \frac{ q }{ a ^2}\)
  4. D \(\frac{3 q}{4 \pi \epsilon_0 a^2}\)
