Question
A particle of mass M is at a distance a from surface of a thin spherical shell of equal mass and having radius a
- Gravitational field and potential both are zero at centre of the shell
- Gravitational field is zero not only inside the shell but at a point outside the shell also
- Inside the shell, gravitational field alone is zero
- Neither gravitational field nor gravitational potential is zero inside the shell
The correct answer is: Neither gravitational field nor gravitational potential is zero inside the shell

In figure, the winch is mounted on an axle, and the 6-sided nut is welded to the winch. By turning the nut with a wrench, a person can rotate the winch. For instance, turning the nut clockwise lifts the block off the ground, because more and more rope gets wrapped around the winch. Three students agree that using a longer wrench makes it easier to turn the winch. But they disagree about why. All three students are talking about the case where the winch is used, over a 10 s time interval, to lift the block one metre off the ground.
Student 1 By using a longer wrench, the person decreases the average force he must exert on the wrench, in order to lift the block one metre in 10s.
Student 2 : Using a longer wrench reduces the work done by the person as he uses the winch to lift the block 1m in 10s.
Student 3 : Using a longer wrench reduces the power that the person must exert to lift the block 1m in 10s.Which of the following is true about student 2 and 3 :-
