Compute directly the gravitational force on a unit mass at a point exterior to a homogeneous sphere of matter.
At the Sun’s surface, the gravitational force between the sun and a 5.00 kg mass of hot gas has a magnitude of 1370 N. Assuming that the sun is spherical and has a mass of 2 x 1030 kg, what is the sun’s mean radius?
A certain spherical planet is made up of two types of material: in the inner core (from the center to radius r = 2R), the mass density is p1; in the outer core (r = 2R to r= 5R), the mass density is p2 = 1/2 p1. Using Gauss’s law, determine the gravitational field at r = 3R in terms of the variables provided.
