Detailed Solution

The gravitational field inside a uniform spherical shell is 0 from gauss law for
gravitation since no mass is enclosed in any Gaussian surface. Since gravitational potential is given by

φ=gdr, hence φ=constant since g=0

Since gravitational field is o everywhere, it is apparently same everywhere.
