A solid sphere of uniform density and radius 4 units is located with its centre at the origin O of coordinates. Two spheres of equal radii 1 unit, with their centres at
A(–2, 0, 0) and (2, 0, 0) respectively, are taken out of the solid leaving behind spherical cavities as shown in figure.
Then:
A(–2, 0, 0) and (2, 0, 0) respectively, are taken out of the solid leaving behind spherical cavities as shown in figure.
Then:
- the gravitational force due to this object at the origin is zero.
- the gravitational force at the point B(2, 0, 0) is zero.
- the gravitational potential is the same at all points of circle y2 + z2 = 36 .
- the gravitational potential is the same at all points on the circle y2 + z2 = 4 .
Answer
(D) the gravitational potential is the same at all points on the circle y 2 + z 2 = 4 .
