Homework Statement
Consider a thin conducting shell of radius r carrying total charge q. Two point charges q and 2q are placed on the points A and B which are at the distances 0.5r and 2r from centre of the shell respectively. If the shell is earthed how much charge flows from to the earth...

A light uniform spring is tied between the ceiling and the floor keeping the spring vertical as shown in the figure. A bead of finite mass is glued at a distance l from the upper end and then allowed to go slowly down. The bead shifts a distance y.How does the y depend on...
Can you please clarify when should i use this logic and when should i use the force equation? Because i have been greatly confused as i first saw it as a standard pendulum problem with varying forces.
But as per the solution we need to take net acceleration every instance 0. Why is it so? Why is it wrong to do that the rate of change of the given velocity is its acceleration and thus the forces along it should be giving it?
