One newly discovered light particle has a mass of m and property q. Suppose it moves within the vicinity of an extremely heavy (fixed in place) particle with a property Q and mass M. When the light particle is
xi distance from the heavy particle, it is moving directly away from the heavy particle with a speed of vi. a) What is the lighter particle's speed when it is xf away from the heavy particle?

Consider a new expression for gravitation potential energy as: PEgrav =
where A is a constant, mj and m2 are the masses of the two objects, and r is the distance between them.
Moreover, the new particle has an additional interaction with the heavy particle through the following force expression

gQ
Fnew 4TTE0 r

where En is a constant that is read as epsilon subscript 0, q and Q are their new properties, r is the distance between the new particle and the heavy particle.
Solution:
We may solve this using two approaches. One involves the Newton's Laws and the other involving Work-Energy theorem.
To avoid the complexity of vector solution, we will instead employ the Work-Energy theorem, more specifically, the Conservation of Energy Principle.
Let us first name the lighter particle as object 1 and the heavy particle as object 2.
Through work-energy theorem, we will take into account all of the energy of the two-charged particle system before and after traveling a certain distance as
KE1F + KE2F + PEgravf + Uelasticf + Unewf = KE1i + KE21 + PEgravi +
+ Unewi
Since the heavy particle remains fixed, before and after the motion of the lighter particle, it does not have any velocity, moreover, there is no spring involved, so
KE1f+
+ Unewf =
+ Unewi
(Equation 1)
For all energies, we know the following
KE =

PEgrav

Velastic = kx?
Unew = (1/
/(r

where in we have
m1 = m, m2 = M, q1 = q and q2 = Q
By substituting all these to Equation 1 and then simplifying results to
= sgrt(
