An electron is constrained to the central perpendicular axis of a ring of charge of radius 2.3 m and charge 0.020 mC. Suppose the electron is released from rest a distance 0.056 m from the ring center. It then oscillates through the ring center. Calculate its period. (The electron is always much closer to the ring center than a radius.)
I have solved this question earlier with different figures. Please workout using yours figures. If you need any further help just PM me. If I have helped you please rate me 5 stars first (before you rate anyone else)
An electron is constrained to the central perpendicular axis of a ring of charge of radius 2.6 m and charge 0.020 mC. See Section 22-6. Suppose the electron is released from rest a distance 0.085 m from the ring center. It then oscillates through the ring center. Calculate its period in seconds. (The electron is always much closer to the ring center than a radius.)

As we know that Period ( T ) = 2? / ?
Charge ( q ) = 0.046 mC = 0.046 * 10-3C
Radius ( R ) = 2.9 m
Charge of electron ( e ) = 1.6 * 10-19C
Mass of the electrion ( m ) = 9.1 * 10-31kg
k = 1/4??o = 9 *109 Nm2/C2
Plugin the values and solve it
