A) \[-\sqrt{32}\frac{GM}{L}\]
B) \[-\sqrt{64}\frac{GM}{{{L}^{2}}}\]
C) Zero
D) \[\sqrt{32}\frac{GM}{L}\]
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
Potential at the centre due to single mass = \[\frac{-GM}{L/\sqrt{2}}\] Potential at the centre due to all four masses = \[-4\frac{GM}{L/\sqrt{2}}\] \[-4\sqrt{2}\frac{GM}{L}\] \[=-\sqrt{32}\times \frac{GM}{L}.\]You need to login to perform this action.
