Question
Gravitational potential at the centre of curvature of a hemispherical bowl of radius R and mass M is V
- gravitational potential at the centre of curvature of a thin uniform wire of mass M, bent into a semicircle of radius R, is also equal to V
- In part (A) if the same wire is bent into a quarter of a circle then also the gravitational potential at the centre of curvature will be V
- In part (A) if the same wire mass is nonuniformly distributed along its length and it is bent into a semicircle of radius R, gravitational potential at the centre is V
- none of these
The correct answer is: gravitational potential at the centre of curvature of a thin uniform wire of mass M, bent into a semicircle of radius R, is also equal to V
