If Force B on the x-z plane is equal to 300N and h = 4m and v = 10m, then what is the i and k components of Force B?
Re-derive Gauss’s law for the gravitational field, with g → directed positively outward.
Consider a uniformly charged ring in the xy plane, centered at the origin. The ring has radius a and positive charge q distributed evenly along its circumference.
A small metal ball of mass m and negative charge −q0 is released from rest at the point (0,0,d) and constrained to move along the z axis, with no damping. At 0<d≪a, the ball's subsequent trajectory is oscillating along the z axis between z=d and z=−d. The ball will oscillate along the z axis between z=d and z=−d in simple harmonic motion.
What will be the angular frequency ω of these oscillations? Use the approximation d≪a to simplify your calculation; that is, assume that d2+a2≈a2.
Express your answer in terms of given charges, dimensions, and constants.
