Two identical positive charges \(Q\) each are fixed at a distance of ' \(2 a\) ' apart from each other. Another point charge qo with mass ' \(m\) ' is placed at midpoint between two fixed charges. For a small displacement along the line joining the fixed charges, the charge \(q_{0}\) executes \(SHM\). The time period of oscillation of charge \(q_{0}\) will be.
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(\sqrt{\frac{4 \pi^{3} \varepsilon_{0} m a^{3}}{q_{0} Q}}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(m \operatorname{acc}^{ n }=\frac{ KQq _{0}[2 a ][2 x ]}{\left( a ^{2}- x ^{2}\right)^{2}}\)
\(\Rightarrow \operatorname{acc}^{ n } \approx\left(\frac{4 kQq _{0}}{ ma ^{3}}\right) x\)
\(T =2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{\pi \varepsilon_{0} ma ^{3}}{ Qq _{0}}}\)
\(T =\sqrt{\frac{4 \pi^{3} \varepsilon_{0} ma ^{3}}{ Qq _{0}}}\)

Three equal masses \(m\) are kept at vertices (A, B, C) of an equilateral triangle of side a in free space. At \(t=0\), they are given an initial velocity \(\vec{V}_A=V_0 \overrightarrow{A C}, \vec{V}_B=V_0 \overrightarrow{B A}\) and \(\vec{V}_C=V_0 \overrightarrow{C B}\). Here, \(\overrightarrow{A C}, \overrightarrow{C B}\) and \(\overrightarrow{B A}\) are unit vectors along the edges of the triangle.
