Derive the formula :, where L is distance, m is mass, z is charge, V is potential

Solutions

Expert Solution

Potential at a point due to some charge or mass configuration is defined as it is numerically equal to work done in bringing the body of unit positive charge or mass from reference position (position of the body where force experience by it is zero) to a position of lenth l (here) such that it is never accelerated i.e. it always remains in the state of quasistatic equilibrium.

A negative charge, -q, has a mass, m, and an initial velocity, v, but is infinitely far away from a fixed large positive charge of +Q and radius R such that if the negative charge continued at constant velocity it would miss the center of the fixec charge by a perpendicular amount b. But because of the Coulomb attraction between the two charges the incoming negative charge is deviated from its straight line course and attracted to the fixed charge...
