If a planet of a given density was made larger, its force of attraction, for an object on its surface, would increase because of the planet's greater mass; but would decrease because of the greater distance from the object to the center of the planet. Which effect predominates?

Six objects are placed at the vertices of $\mathrm{a}$ regular hexagon. The geometric centre of the hexagon is at the origin with objects $1$ and $4$ on the $X$-axis (see figure). The mass of the $\mathrm{k}$ th object is ${\mathrm{m}}_{\mathrm{k}}={\mathrm{k}}^{\mathrm{i}}\mathrm{M}\left|{\mathrm{cos\theta }}_{\mathrm{k}}\right|,$ where $\mathrm{i}$ is an integer, $\mathrm{M}$ is $\mathrm{a}$ constant with dimension of mass and ${\mathrm{\theta }}_{\mathrm{k}}$ is the angular position of the $\mathrm{k}$ th vertex measured from the positive $\mathrm{x}$ -axis in the counter-clockwise sense. If the net gravitational force on $\mathrm{a}$ body at the centroid vanishes, the value of $\mathrm{i}$ is

A solid sphere of radius $R$ carries a charge $\left(Q+q\right)$ distributed uniformly over its volume. A very small point-like piece of it of mass $m$ gets detached from the bottom of the sphere and falls down vertically under gravity. This piece carries charge $q$. If it acquires a speed $v$ when it has fallen through a vertical height $y$ (see figure), then (assume the remaining portion to be spherical)

Four identical particles of mass $\mathrm{M}$ are located at the corners of a square of side $‘a’$ . What should be their speed if each of them revolves under the influence of other’s gravitational field in a circular orbit circumscribing the square?
