$A$ uniform sphere $A$ with radius $R$ exerts a force $F$ on a small particle $B$ situated at a distance $2R$ from the centre of the sphere. $A$ spherical portion of diameter $R$ is cut from the sphere $A$ as shown in the figure. If $F^{\prime}$ is the new gravitational force between the remaining part of the sphere $A$ and the particle $B$,then find the correct relation between $F$ and $F^{\prime}$.

  • A
    $F^{\prime} = \frac{7}{8} F$
  • B
    $F^{\prime} = \frac{14}{9} F$
  • C
    $F^{\prime} = \frac{7}{9} F$
  • D
    $F^{\prime} = \frac{9}{7} F$

The gravitational force acting on a particle,due to a solid sphere of uniform density and radius $R$,at a distance of $3 R$ from the centre of the sphere is $F_1$. $A$ spherical hole of radius $(R / 2)$ is now made in the sphere as shown in the figure. The sphere with hole now exerts a force $F_2$ on the same particle. The ratio of $F_1$ and $F_2$ is
