    A mass M is split into two parts m and (M- w), which are then separated by a certain distance. What ratio of m/M maximizes the gravitational force between the two parts?

    A) \[\frac{1}{3}\]

    B) \[\frac{1}{2}\]

    C) \[\frac{1}{4}\]

    D) \[\frac{1}{5}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] \[F=G\frac{m\left( M-m \right)}{{{r}^{2}}}\] For maximum value of F,\[dF/dm=0\] and so m=M/2.
