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.
