Question
A spherically symmetric gravitational system of particles has a mass density ρ =
where ρ0 is a constant. A test mass can undergo circular motion under the influence of the gravitational field of particles. Its speed V as a function of distance r (0 < r < ∞) from the centre of the system is represented by

Options
A.

B.

C.

D.

Solution
G
πρ0r =
, r ≤ R
Hence, v ∝ r
r ≥ R
Hence v ∝
πρ0r =
, r ≤ RHence, v ∝ r
r ≥ R Hence v ∝
