When bodies of masses 1 kg and 25 kg are separated by a certain distance, the resultant gravitational field in between them is zero at a point which is 1 m from 1 kg. Then the distance between them would be

A

3 m

B

6 m

C

8 m

D

12 m

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
b

`(M_(1))/(M_(2))=((x)/(r-x))^(2)`
`therefore" "((1)/(25))^(1//2)=(1)/(r-1) therefore r-1=5 therefore r=6m.`
