A straight rod of length L extends from x = a to x = L + a. The gravitational force it exerts on a point mass m at x = 0, if the mass per unit length of the rod is A + Bx2, is given by |
| A. | \(Gm\left[ {A\left( {\frac{1}{{a + L}} - \frac{1}{a}} \right) - BL} \right]\) |
| B. | \(Gm\left[ {A\left( {\frac{1}{{a + L}} - \frac{1}{a}} \right) + BL} \right]\) |
| C. | \(Gm\left[ {A\left( {\frac{1}{a} - \frac{1}{{a + L}}} \right) + BL} \right]\) |
