A spherical shell is cut into two pieces along a chord as shown in the figure. \(P\) is a point on the plane of the chord. The gravitational field at \(P\) due to the upper part is \(I_1\) and that due to the lower part is \(I_2\). What is the relation between them?

- A \(I_1>I_2\)
- B \(I_2>I_1\)
- C \(I_1=I_2\)
- D No definite relation
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(I_1=I_2\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
At point \(P\), we have \(I_1-I_2=0\) Because gravitational field inside a shell is zero. Hence, \[ I_1=I_2 \]
