Why is the following situation impossible? You set up an apparatus in your laboratory as follows. The x axis is the symmetry axis of a stationary, uniformly charged ring of radius R = 0.500 m and charge Q = 50.0 μC (as shown). You place a particle with charge Q = 50.0 μC and mass m = 0.100 kg at the center of the ring and arrange for it to be constrained to move only along the x axis. When it is displaced slightly, the particle is repelled by the ring and accelerates along the x axis. The particle moves faster than you expected and strikes the opposite wall of your laboratory at 40.0 m/s.
A positively charged disk of radius R = 0.0326 m and total charge 55.8 µC lies in the xz plane, centered on the y axis (see figure below). Also centered on the y axis is a charged ring with the same radius as the disk and a total charge of −35.1 µC. The ring is a distance d = 0.0050 m above the disk. Determine the electric field at the point P on the y axis, where P is y = 0.0100 m above the origin. (Express your answer in vector form.) E =
