Answer with Explanation:
We are given that


a.We have to find the torque on the particle about the origin.
We know that
Torque=
By using the formula

b.



Substitute the values then we get



Because 

Answer:
The positively charged ball moves between both charged plates till the plates and the ball all become neutral.

Explanation:
Let the ball be in square brackets, and the plates in normal brackets.
(+) [+] (-)
From the law that like charges repel and unlike charges attract.
The positive ball would go first to the negatively charged plate. After which, the ball would hold more negative charges overall than before.
Because the ball is now more negatively charged, it then travels towards the positive plate. In the same manner, the ball would transfer negative electrons to the positive plate.
So, when leaving the positive plate, the ball would be more positive and be drawn towards the negative plate once more. In doing so, it would make the negative plate more positive.
Then, the ball again holds more negative electrons and is drawn towards the positive plate once more.
This back and forth process continues until the once-positive and once-negative plates become neutral, that is, they are discharged.
The ball hanging on the insulated thread becomes neutral too at this point.

I changed my undershorts. The elastic on the old ones I put on that day was deteriorated, and it completely failed when I dripped lab coffee on it, causing falldown.
It would be 12W because: 6v is half of 12v so half of 24w would be 12w
