A planet of radius R=110× (radius of Earth) has the same mass density as Earth. Scientists dig a well of depth R5 on it and lower a wire of the same length and of linear mass density 10-3 kg m-1 into it. If the wire is not touching anywhere, the force applied at the top of the wire by a person holding it in place is (take the radius of Earth =6×106 m and the acceleration due to gravity of Earth is 10 m s-2)

Consider a spherical gaseous cloud of mass density ρr in free space where r is the radial distance from its center. The gaseous cloud is made of particles of equal mass m moving in circular orbits about the common center with the same kinetic energy K . The force acting on the particles is their mutual gravitational force. If ρr is constant in time, the particle number density nr=ρr/m is: [ G is universal gravitational constant]
