A particle of charge +q and mass m is ejected from the point P with the initial velocity i = 20î + 10f(), traveling in a parabolic orbit with a maximum height d = 2cm in the uniform electric field and hitting the point Q at a distance of L = 10cm. Since the distance between the plates is 2d and the potential difference is 1000V, find the ratio of the particle's charge to its mass (q/m). (Ignore the gravitational force).

A light, unstressed spring has length d. Two identical particles, each with charge q, are connected to the opposite ends of the spring. The particles are held stationary a distance d apart and then released at the same moment. The system then oscillates on a frictionless, horizontal table. The spring has a bit of internal kinetic friction, so the oscillation is damped. The particles eventually stop vibrating when the distance between them is 3d. Assume the system of the spring and two charged particles is isolated. Find the increase in internal energy that appears in the spring during the oscillations.
In class, we considered the problem of a point charge q outside a grounded, conducting sphere of radius R. Assuming that the sphere was centered at the origin, we employed the ‘method of images’ to find the electrostatic potential as V (r > R) = q − qR/a ,|⃗r − azˆ| |⃗r − (R2/a)zˆ| where a > 0 is the position of the charge q on the z-axis. Consider the analogous problem where the charge q is now placed inside a hollow, grounded, conducting sphere of inner radius R, and q is at the position a < R on the z-axis. a) Find the electrostatic potential V (r < R) inside the sphere. b) Find the induced surface-charge density σ on the sphere. c) Find the magnitude and direction of the force F⃗ acting on the charge q. d) Determine the electrostatic potential V (r < R) if the sphere is instead kept at a constant potential V0. e) Determine the electrostatic potential V (r < R) when a total charge Q is put on the sphere.
