$\text{M}=(\text{p})\times\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{R}^3$ Therefore, gravitational force between hollow shell and point mass is $\text{F}=\frac{\text{GMm}}{\text{r}^2}$
where M is the mass of the hollow spherical shell and m is the mass of point mass.Therefore, the mass is distributed on the surface of the sphere only, then F = 0 for $0<\text{r}<\text{R}$ (i.e., force inside the shell is zero)
And $\text{F}=\frac{\text{GM}}{\text{r}^2}$ for $\text{r}>\text{R}$
The variation of F versus r is shown in the diagram. Force is maximum at the surface of shell and it is zero if r tends to infinity.
