Two fixed,identical conducting plates $(\alpha)$ and $(\beta)$,each of surface area $S$,are charged to $-Q$ and $q$,respectively,where $Q > q > 0$. $A$ third identical plate $(\gamma)$,free to move,is located on the other side of the plate with charge $q$ at a distance $d$ as per the figure. The third plate is released and collides with the plate $(\beta)$. Assume the collision is elastic and the time of collision is sufficient to redistribute charge amongst $(\beta)$ and $(\gamma)$.
$(a)$ Find the electric field acting on the plate $(\gamma)$ before collision.
$(b)$ Find the charges on $(\beta)$ and $(\gamma)$ after the collision.
$(c)$ Find the velocity of the plate $(\gamma)$ after the collision and at a distance $d$ from the plate $(\beta)$.
