A particle of mass m and charge q is attached to a light insulating thread of length L. The other end of the thread is secured at point O. Exactly below point O, there is a small ball having charge Q fixed on an insulating horizontal surface. The particle remains in equilibrium vertically above the ball with the string taut. Distance of the ball from point O is L. Find the minimum value of Q for which the particle will be in a stable equilibrium for any gentle horizontal push given to it.
