PhysicsNEET 2023Gravitational potential and potential energy

Gravitation

Two bodies of mass mm and 9m9m are placed at a distance RR. The gravitational potential on the line joining the bodies, where the gravitational field equals zero, will be (GG = gravitational constant):

  1. A.−8GmR-\dfrac{8Gm}{R}
  2. B.−12GmR-\dfrac{12Gm}{R}
  3. C.−16GmR-\dfrac{16Gm}{R}✓
  4. D.−20GmR-\dfrac{20Gm}{R}

You have the answer. The worked solution — and why the other three were written — is part of a paid pack.
