Find the gravitational force of attraction between the ring and the sphere as shown in the diagram. The plane of the ring is perpendicular to the line joining the centres. The distance between the centres of the ring (mass $m$) and the sphere (mass $M$) is $\sqrt{8}R$,where both have an equal radius $R$.

The gravitational field,due to the 'left over part' of a uniform sphere (from which a part as shown,has been 'removed out'),at a very far off point,$P$,located as shown,would be (nearly)

The gravitational field in a region is given by $I = (5 \hat{i} + 12 \hat{j}) \text{ N kg}^{-1}$. The change in the gravitational potential energy of an object of mass $3 \text{ kg}$ when it is taken from the origin to a point $(8 \text{ m}, -2 \text{ m})$ is (in $\text{ J}$)

$A$ mass $m$ is placed at $P$ at a distance $h$ along the normal through the centre $O$ of a thin circular ring of mass $M$ and radius $r$. If the mass is moved further away such that $OP$ becomes $2h$,by what factor will the force of gravitation decrease,if $h = r$?
