In a certain region of space, the gravitational field is given by `-k//r`, where `r` is the distance and `k` is a constant. If the gravitational potential for the gravitational potential `V`?

A

`k log(r//r_(0))`

B

`k log (r_(0)//r)`

C

`V_(0)+klog(r//r_(0))`

D

`V_(0)+klog(r_(0)//r)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Here, `I=-(dV)/(dr)=-k//r` or `dV=k(dr)/r` then integrated and substitute the limits
