$A$ spherical shell is cut into two pieces along a chord as shown in the figure. $P$ is a point on the plane of the chord. The magnitude of the gravitational field at $P$ due to the upper part is $I_1$ and that due to the lower part is $I_2$. What is the relation between them?
- A$I_1 > I_2$
- B$I_1 < I_2$
- C$I_1 = I_2$
- DNone of these
