Dependence of intensity of gravitational field of earth with distance from centre of earth is correctly represented by:







Options
- A

- B

- C

- D

Correct answer
A. 
Step-by-step solution
Here we have to find the graph between (E) and (r) in the given situation.
We know that,
So, E is directly proportional to r and there is a negative sign. Hence graph will be straight line in 2nd quadrant starting from origin like the case of uniform motion in negative direction.
So, E is inversly proportional to and there is a negative sign. Hence graph will be like as shown in this figure.
