I think that as a physical process, the problem is under-determined. The constancy of ##~\left|\vec{a}\right|~## constraint...

Very nice explanation! I think it gets to the heart of the matter. By choosing the tangential force appropriately as a function of...

If my calculations are correct, it is possible to construct infinitely many answers to that problem (as stated). Including "never".

Yes, I agree. And the arc length comes out nice.

I don't understand why you say that "dEx is Rcosθ distance away". Both dE and dEx are associated with the same point, namely the...

Your answer is wrong because you can't get the x-component dEx by replacing R in the denominator of dE by Rcosθ. Note that Rcosθ < R...

No. Let's forget dEx for now. Just concentrate on dE. dE is the magnitude of the electric field vector dE at the origin O produced...

What was your reason for writing the denominator of the integrand as ##(R\cos \theta)^2##? This is not correct. To find ##E_x## due to...
