Problem

In electrostatics, the field inside a spherical cavity within a uniformly charged non-conducting sphere is uniform. Analogously, for a gravitational sphere of density ρ\rho with a cavity whose center is displaced by vector d⃗\vec{d} from the sphere's center, prove that the field is uniform and find its magnitude in terms of GG, ρ\rho, and d⃗\vec{d}.
