A fixed spherical shell of inner radius ...

A fixed spherical shell of inner radius R and outer radius 2R has mass M, A particle of mass m is held at rest at a distance 2R from the surface of the body. If the particle is released from that point, with what speed will it hit surface of the spherical body ?

To solve the problem step by step, we will use the principles of gravitational potential energy and conservation of energy. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Setup**: - We have a spherical shell with an inner radius \( R \) and an outer radius \( 2R \), and it has a mass \( M \). - A particle of mass \( m \) is held at rest at a distance \( 2R \) from the surface of the shell. Therefore, the total distance from the center of the shell to the particle is \( R + 2R = 3R \). ...
