MCQ
Which one of the following graphs represents correctly the variation of the gravitational field $(F) $ with the distance $(r)$ from the centre of a spherical shell of mass $M$ and radius $a$
  • A

  • B

  • C


Answer

Correct option: D.

d
(d) Intensity will be zero inside the spherical shell.
$I = 0$ upto $r = a$ and $I \propto \frac{1}{{{r^2}}}$ when $r > a$
