 S.P.A.R.T.A.N force, still trapped in the town of Lakeview, has been sent as part of a larger governmental team to work on developing a micro-particle accelerator on the outskirts of town. Why does a town the size of Lakeview need a micro-particle accelerator? You are not at liberty to say. Your team is tasked with modeling the initial part of the accelerator, which uses a constant electric field to accelerate the charges. The concept is that the particles will enter a tube that is encapsulated by rings of charge. Your team needs to demonstrate that this concept will produce a __constant__ electric field. S.P.A.R.T.A.N force, still trapped in the town of Lakeview, has been sent as part of a larger governmental team to work on developing a micro-particle accelerator on the outskirts of town.

 The first bit of code that you have received is from the previous team who were able to construct a single ring of charge and show the electric field due to that ring at some point. Your team should construct the electric field vectors for a circle inside the accelerator (smaller than the ring) at a distance of a few centimeters from the ring face. The first bit of code that you have received is from the previous team who were able to construct a single ring of charge and show the electric field due to that ring at some point.

 After you got this initial code working, your team was able to construct a model of a tube consisting of multiple rings, all with the same charge. But, the field doesn't look quite right - it's not constant as expected. Your bosses seem to think the field can be made constant in the tube, so it's up to you to figure out how.  After you got this initial code working, your team was able to construct a model of a tube consisting of multiple rings, all with the same charge.

 Outside of the town of Lakeview work is being completed on the Artemis 13 spacecraft. Another engineering and science task force titled T.R.O.J.A.N force are working with The Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) Division of NASA testing a new and highly experimental spacecraft capable of in atmosphere flight as well as outer orbit maneuvering (Artemis 13). Lieutenant Pete "Maverick" Mitchell has been testing the new spacecraft now for a few weeks, and has had continuous issues with the warning light for power delivery failure to the stabilizers on the wings.  Outside of the town of Lakeview work is being completed on the Artemis 13 spacecraft.

 Maverick is convinced that the time between when the problem happens and when the warning light comes on is way too long, and this delay in relaying the warning to him could lead to a very problematic incident in the future. He does not want to lose another co-pilot like Goose. You have been given the task of explaining to Maverick why this could not be the case, and your boss, Clint Howard, has given you the following circuit diagram to try and aid you in your explanation to Maverick.  The circuit diagram at this time does not include the warning light. Maverick is convinced that the time between when the problem happens and when the warning light comes on is way too long, and this delay in relaying the warning to him could lead to a very problematic incident in the future.
