Two bodies of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ are initially at rest at infinite distance apart. They are then allowed to move towards each other under mutual gravitational attraction. Their relative velocity of approach at a separation distance $r$ between them is

$A$ small point mass $m$ is placed at a distance $2R$ from the centre $O$ of a big uniform solid sphere of mass $M$ and radius $R$. The gravitational force on $m$ due to $M$ is $F_1$. $A$ spherical part of radius $R/3$ is removed from the big sphere as shown in the figure and the gravitational force on $m$ due to the remaining part of $M$ is found to be $F_2$. The value of the ratio $F_1: F_2$ is
