A point mass m is placed inside a spherical shell of radius R and mass M at a distance `R/2` form the centre of the shell. The gravitational force exerted by the shell on the point mass isA. `(GMm)/( R^(2))`B. `(2GMm)/(R^(2))`C. zeroD. `(4Mm)/(R^(2))` |
Answer» Correct Answer - C ( c) If a point mass is placed inside a uniform spherical shell, the gravitational force on the point mass is zero. Hence, the gravitational force exerted by the shell on the point mass is zero. |
