There are two bodies of mass 100 kg, 10000 kg separated by a distance of 1m. At what distance from the smaller body the intensity of gravitational field is zero:

Answer»

`(1)/(9)m`
`(1)/(10)m`
`(1)/(11)m`
none of the above.

Solution :At POINT C, `E_(1)=E_(2)`

`rArr (GM_(1))/(X^(2))=(GM_(2))/((1-x)^(2)) rArr (100)/(x^(2))=(10,000)/((1-x)^(2))`
`rArr (1-x)/(x)=10 rArr 11x=1`
or `x=(1)/(11)m`
Hence correct CHOICE is (c ).
