Information:
\begin{itemize}
\item Unless otherwise stated, it is assumed that the system is in electrostatic equilibrium.
\item Unless otherwise stated, ``potential'' means ``electrostatic potential'',
and correspondingly for ``potential energy''.
\item Unless otherwise stated, zero (electrostatic) potential and potential energy is chosen
infinitely far away.
\item You may need some of these: $1/4\pi\varepsilon_0 = 9\cdot10^9$ Nm$^2$/C$^2$,
$e=1.6\cdot10^{-19}$ C, $m_e = 9.11\cdot10^{-31}$ kg, $m_p = 1.67\cdot10^{-27}$ kg, $g = 9.8$ m/s$^2$
\item Symbols are given in italics (e.g. $V$ for potential) while units are given without italics
(e.g. V for volt).
