    A point mass m is placed inside a spherical shell of radius R and mass M at a distance \[\frac{R}{2}\]from the centre of the shell. The gravitational force exerted by the shell on the point mass is

    A) \[\frac{GMm}{{{R}^{2}}}\]

    B) \[\frac{GMm}{{{R}^{2}}}\]

    C)  zero

    D) \[\frac{4GMm}{{{R}^{2}}}\]

    Correct Answer: C
