Q.

Consider two solid spherical asteroids with same uniform density, of mass M  and radius R In one asteroid, a smooth tunnel of very small cross section and depth R  is bored to the centre and in other asteroid, a spherical cavity of radius R2  is made as shown in the figure. Now, two identical particles of mass m  are dropped into the cavities of both asteroids from the top most point  P. The magnitudes of gravitational forces experienced by particles are FI  and FII  respectively in cavities of asteroids  I and II,  when they are  x distance away from the centres of asteroids. If the times taken by particles to reach the centres of asteroids are  TI and TII  respectively, then :
