Problem

Consider a lead sphere of radius R=1 mR = 1\,\text{m} with a spherical cavity of radius R/2R/2. The cavity is positioned such that its edge touches the center of the lead sphere and its other edge touches the surface of the lead sphere. Find the gravitational field intensity at the center of the lead sphere (OO). Assume the mass of a complete solid sphere of radius RR would be M=100 kgM = 100\,\text{kg}.
