Two bodies of masses 100 kg and 10,000 kg are at a distance 1 m apart. At which point on the line joining them will be the resultant gravitational field intensity zero?
Let, x be the distance of the point P from 100 kg body where the resultant gravitational intensity is zero.
Therefore, gravitational intensity at P due to body of mass 100 kg is equal and opposite to that due to body of mass 10, 000 kg.
Hence,
At this point, the gravitational field intensity will be 0.
