$A$ positive charge $Q$ is distributed uniformly over a circular ring of radius $R$. $A$ point particle having a mass $m$ and a negative charge $-q$ is placed on its axis at a distance $x$ from the centre. Assuming $x \ll R$,find the time period of oscillation of the particle,if it is released from there [neglect gravity].

An electric dipole of moment $\overrightarrow{p} = (-\hat{i} - 3\hat{j} + 2\hat{k}) \times 10^{-29} \; C \cdot m$ is at the origin $(0, 0, 0)$. The electric field due to this dipole at $\overrightarrow{r} = \hat{i} + 3\hat{j} + 5\hat{k}$ (note that $\overrightarrow{r} \cdot \overrightarrow{p} = 0$) is parallel to
