) a particle of mass 40 micro gram and carrying a charge 5/1000000000C is moving directly towards a fixed positive charge of magnitude 1/100000000C. when it is at a distance of 10cm from the fixed point charge, it has a velocity of 50cm/s. At what distance from the fixed charge will the particle comes to memontarily rest? is the acceleration constant during the motion?

When the charge comes to rest, it will lose all its kinetic energy to potential energy of the system.
Hence \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2+\dfrac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r_1}=\dfrac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r_2}
\implies \dfrac{1}{r_2}=\dfrac{1}{r_1}+\dfrac{2\pi\epsilon_0mv^2}{q_1q_2}
\implies r_2=8.25mm
