The dependence of the intensity of the gravitational field $(E)$ of the Earth on the distance $(r)$ from the center of the Earth is correctly represented by:

Consider a spherical gaseous cloud of mass density $\rho(r)$ in free space,where $r$ is the radial distance from its center. The gaseous cloud is made of particles of equal mass $m$ moving in circular orbits about the common center with the same kinetic energy $K$. The force acting on the particles is their mutual gravitational force. If $\rho(r)$ is constant in time,the particle number density $n(r) = \rho(r) / m$ is:
