Question
A particle of mass M is at a distance a from surface of a thin spherical shell of equal mass and having radius a
Options
A.Gravitational field and potential both are zero at centre of the shell
B.Gravitational field is zero not only inside the shell but at a point outside the shell also
C.Inside the shell, gravitational field alone is zero
D.Neither gravitational field nor gravitational potential is zero inside the shell
Solution
