    A disk of radius $R$ with uniform positive charge density $\sigma$ is placed on the $x y$ plane with its center at the origin. The Coulomb potential along the $z$-axis is

    $V(z)=\frac{\sigma}{2 \epsilon_0}\left(\sqrt{R^2+z^2}-z\right)$

    A particle of positive charge $q$ is placed initially at rest at a point on the $z$ axis with $z=z_0$ and $z_0>0$. In addition to the Coulomb force, the particle experiences a vertical force $\vec{F}=-c \hat{k}$ with $c>0$. Let $\beta=\frac{2 c \epsilon_0}{q \sigma}$. Which of the following statement($s$) is(are) correct?

    $(A)$ For $\beta=\frac{1}{4}$ and $z_0=\frac{25}{7} R$, the particle reaches the origin.

    $(B)$ For $\beta=\frac{1}{4}$ and $z_0=\frac{3}{7} R$, the particle reaches the origin.

    $(C)$ For $\beta=\frac{1}{4}$ and $z_0=\frac{R}{\sqrt{3}}$, the particle returns back to $z=z_0$.
