Two massive charges +Q = +20e, and Q = -20e (where e is the fundamental electric charge, 1.6 × 10-19 C), orbit each other
in a circle of radius s = 6 x 10-6 m, making a dipole. A comparatively small charge -q = -4e, with mass 0.0555556 kg is placed
initially at rest far from the dipole a distance R = 50 m, as seen in the diagram below.
During the ensuing motion of all the three charges, you can assume that the force on the dipole due to the small charge does
not affect the motion of the dipole. You may also safely ignore the gravitational interaction of these particles. Use
k = 9 × 109 m² for Coulomb's constant.
