A particle is uncharged and is thrown vertically upward from ground level with a speed of 24.0 m/s. As a result, it attains a maximum height h. The particle is then given a positive charge +q and reaches the same maximum height h when thrown vertically upward with a speed of 29.7 m/s. The electric potential at the height h exceeds the electric potential at ground level. Finally, the particle is given a negative charge -q. Ignoring air resistance, determine the speed with which the negatively charged particle must be thrown vertically upward, so that it attains exactly the maximum height h. In all three situations, be sure to include the effect of gravity.

A positive charge is evenly distributed on the surface of a metal sphere centered at the origin of the coordinate system. The positive charge produces an electric field that points outwardly in the radial direction. A positive test charge is fixed at a distance R₁ from the center of the coordinate system, far from the surface of the sphere. The electric potential at R₁ is 10V. The positive test charge is then allowed to move freely until it reaches a distance R₂=2R₁ from the center of the coordinate system. What is the electric potential (in Volts) of the test charge at its new resting point? 10

A particle is uncharged and is thrown vertically upward from ground level with a speed of 25.0 m/s. As a result, it attains a maximum height h. The particle is then given a positive charge 1q and reaches the same maximum height h when thrown vertically upward with a speed of 30.0 m/s. The electric potential at the height h exceeds the electric potential at ground level. Finally, the particle is given a negative charge =q.
