Question

An ideal uniformly charged ring is situated on the xy-plane with
its center at the origin. Assuming that the charge of the ring is negative,
a proton moving in the +z -axis going to the origin will

 

(A) speed up and then slow down before reaching the center of the
ring.
(B) deviate from the z-axis and hit the ring.
(C) have a maximum acceleration magnitude near the center of the
ring.
(D) have minimum speed upon reaching the center of the ring.
(E) deviate from the z-axis and pass inside the ring significantly missing
its center.
