The diagram showing the variation of gravitational potential of earth with distance from the centre of earth is

Gravitational force is a conservation and medium independent force. Its nature is attractive. Gravitational field intensity and gravitational potential gives information about gravitational fied in vector and scaler form respectively. Actually gravitational fied intensity is equal to the negative of the negative of teh potential gradient. potential energy is defined for only conservation force. it is also equal to the total energy in escaping condition. gravitational potential is either negative or zero but can never be positive due to attractive nature of gravitational force. The gravitational potential inside a hollow sphere (mass M , radius R ) at a distance r from the centre is:
