A spherically symmetric gravitational system of particles has a mass density where is a constant. A test mass can undergo circular motion under the influence of the gravitational field of particles. Its speed as a function of distance r

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

Given mass density for for Since gravitational depends on mass, which is zero for , hence it only acts for . Beyond , mass density acceleration due to gravity velocity stays constant.
