Gravitation Question 363
Question: The gravitational potential of two homogeneous spherical shells A and B of same surface density at their respective centres are in the ratio 3 : 4. If the two shells coalesce into single one such that surface charge density remains same, then the ratio of potential at an internal point of the view shell to shell A is equal to
