I'm not asking you to solve that equation... thinking in terms of conservation laws might be useful..
A point-like electric dipole (dipole moment = p) is kept at the origin, pointing along the +z direction. A point charge q having mass m is released at rest from a point on the xy plane at a distance R from the origin. Assuming that only electrical forces act, determine the subsequent motion of the point charge.

		its the curve
xd2x/dt2 + 2yd2y/dt2 =0
do u want us to solve this eq ?
