A non-conducting disc 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 disc, from a height H with zero initial velocity. The particle has `q//m=4 in_0 g//sigma`
Find the value of H if the particle just reaches the disc.

A point particle of mass M is attached to one end of a massless rigid non-conducting rod of length L. Another point particle of the same mass is attached to the other end of the rod.
