Solution

The correct option is B 2m(215q24π0a)1/2
Given:
Radius of ring =3a
Charge on ring =q
Speed of point charge at (z=4a) along zaxis =v
Potential at any point of the charged ring
Vp=KqR2+Z2
R=3a
Z=4a
l=R2+Z2=5a
Vp=Kq5a

The minimum velocity (v0) should just sufficient to reach the point charge at the center, therefore
12mv20=q[VCVP]=q[Kq3aKq5a]

v20=4Kq215ma=41514π0q2ma

v0=2m(2q215×4π0a)1/2

Hence option (C) is correct.
