A nonconducting disk of radius a and uniform positive surface charge density `sigma` is placed on the ground, with its axis vertical. A particle of mass m and positive charge q is dropped, along the axis of the disk, from a height H with zero initial velocity. The particle has `q//m = 4 epsilon_(0) g// sigma`.
(i) Find the value of H if the particle just reaches the disk.
(ii) Sketch the potential energy of the particle as a function of its height and find its equilibrium position.

A circular ring of radius R with uniform positive charge density lambda per unit length is located in the y-z plane with its centre at the origin O. A particle of mass m and positive charge q is projected from the point P (Rsqrt3, 0, 0) on the positive x-axis directly towards O, with an initial speed v. Find the smallest (non-zero) value of the speed v such that the particle does not return to P.
