Q.

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

Detailed Solution

Question Image

M(r) = mass of gas in a sphere of radius r.   

For any particle of mass m located at radius r, Fg=Fcp

 GMrmr2=mv2r

GM (r) m = 2(K) r           here K=12mv2

 Mr=2KGmr
On differentiating w.r.t r,  

dMdr=2KGm ................ (1)
Here dM = mass of gas in a spherical shell of radius r and thickness dr.

Question Image


dM=ρrdV=ρr4πr2dr  ............... (2) 

Substitute (2) in (1)

ρr4πr2drdr=2KGm 

ρr=K2πr2Gm 

nr=ρrm=K2πr2Gm2
