- Three charges on a ring Three particles of equal mass m are placed on a ring of radius R. Two of the particles have charge q and the third has a charge Q. (a) Find the equilibrium configuration of the charges for general q and Q. Be sure to consider both qQ> 0 and qQ <0. (You will find an equation that relates the angles between the particles and their charges. This equation can't be solved in general, however comment on special cases and check various limits.) (b) Solve the equation from part (a) for q = Q. For this case, consider small pertur- bations of the charges around their equilibrium positions. Find the frequencies and eigenmodes.

- Two spherical, hollow conductors are concentrically nested as shown in the cross-sectional diagram below and electrically isolated from each other. A net charge of -3 nC is divided between the conductors, with a total of -12 nC on the inner conductor and +9 nC on the outer one. The charges are, of course, free to move between the surfaces within each shell but cannot move from one shell to the other. The inner conductor has an inner radius of a=2 cm, outer radius of b=3 cm. The outer conductor has an inner radius of c=6 cm, an outer radius of d=8 cm. a (a) In equilibrium, all of the excess charge is found on the surfaces. Why is there no charge between a and b, nor between c and d? (b) Determine the net charge on each surface (ie how much charge is there at r = a, at r = b, at r = c and at r= = d). (c) Is the charge on the outer surface equal to the net charge on the outer container, the net charge of the system, or some other amount? Explain briefly.

The smaller shell has an inner radius of 0.100m and an outer radius of 0.200m. The larger shell has an inner radius of 0.300m and and outer radius of 0.400m. A point charge of +10.0μC is placed between the two shells at a radius of 0.250m from the origin.
