To answer the question, "If \( \vec{E} = 0 \) at a given point, must \( V \) equal for that point?", we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between electric field and potential The electric field \( \vec{E} \) is related to the electric potential \( V \) by the equation: \[ \vec{E} = -\frac{dV}{dr} \] This means that the electric field is the negative gradient of the electric potential. ...

The gravitational force vec(F) upon an object of mass m placed in external gravitational field vec(E )_("ext") is given by vec(F)=m vec(E )_("ext") . Consider a fixed mass ring (of mass M, radius R) in y-z plane, with centre at (0,0) and axis of ring along x direction. If the point mass m placed at the centre of ring and given a velocity v_(0) such that point mass escapes from the gravitational field of ring. Then v_(0) is
