Electric field E due to a thin charged ring at a point away from centre is given by
where λ is charge density, i.e, charge per unit length. R is radius of ring and a is the distance between centre of ring to the point where we want to find the electric field.
(above equation is already derived for you in another question of yours)
 
let us consider K= (2λR)/(4πε0), K is a constant and
 
 
we have substituted R= 2 m in the above summation for numerical integration
 
we can workout the numerical integration as given above for various values of a. The values are tabulated  below
 
-----------------------------------------------
a(m)              S(a) (m-2)
-----------------------------------------------
0                   0.000
0.01              -2.51×10-3
0.02              -4.63×10-3
0.03              -6.75×10-3
0.04              -8.87×10-3
0.05              -10.99×10-3
0.06              -13.11×10-3
0.07              -15.24×10-3
0.08              -17.36×10-3
0.09              -19.50×10-3
0.10              -21.63×10-3
------------------------------------------------ 
 
from the tabulated values we can fit a linear equation S(a) = -0.2235×a
 
then electric field E = K×(-0.2235)a = { (2λR)/(4πε0) } × (-0.2235)a = -143a
 
in the above relation we have sustituted λ = 10-6/(2πR) as charge density per unit length in the ring
 
Then the force experienced by a charge 10-7 C at a=2 cm is given by 
 
F = -143×2×10-2×10-7 Newtons
 
F = -286 × 10-9 Newtons
 
Since the force on a charge F = -(143×10-7)a  is of the form F = -ka, which is known as the condition for SHM, we can say the charge particle is subjected to SHM due to this electrostatic force.
Time period T is given by
