Motion In Straight Line

Question

Wired Faculty App

What is gravitational field at a point inside the shell of mass M and radius r?

Solution

Gravitational field is given by,
$straight I thin space equals space GM over straight x squared$ ... (1)
The mass lies at the periphery of the shell. And at the centre mass is equal to 0.
Therefore, according to equation (1),
Gravitational field at a point inside the shell = 0
