Q. From asolid sphere of mass M & radius r,as sphere of diameter r is cut off as shown. What is the intensity at a point x distance away from the centre.

A uniform sphere of mass $M$ and radius $R$ exerts a force $F$ on a small mass $m$ situated at a distance of $2 R$ from the centre $O$ of the sphere. A spherical portion of diameter $R$ is cut from the sphere as shown in the figure. The force of attraction between the remaining part of the sphere and the mass $m$ will be:
