Two concentric shells of masses M(1) and...

Two concentric shells of masses `M_(1)` and `M_(2)` are concentric as shown. Calculate the gravitational force on m due to `M_(1)` and `M_(2)` at points P,Q and `R`.

A

`F_(P) =0`

B

`F_(Q)=(GM_(1)m)/(b^(2))`

C

`F_(R)=(G(M_(1)+M_(2)))/(c^(2))`

D

All are correct

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

At P, F = 0
At Q, `F=(GM_(1)m)/(b^(2))`
At R, `F=(G(M_(1)+M_(2))m)/(c^(2))`.
