Problem 4.214

A particle with charge ee and mass mm flies with non-relativistic velocity vv at a distance bb past a stationary particle with charge q.q . Neglecting the bending of the trajectory of the moving particle, find the energy lost by this particle due to radiation during the total flight time.
