As shown in the figure,when a spherical cavity (centred at $O$) of radius $1$ is cut out of a uniform sphere of radius $R$ (centred at $C$),the centre of mass of the remaining (shaded) part of the sphere is at $G$,i.e.,on the surface of the cavity. $R$ can be determined by the equation:

  • A
    $\left(R^{2}-R+1\right)(2-R)=1$
  • B
    $\left(R^{2}+R-1\right)(2-R)=1$
  • C
    $\left(R^{2}+R+1\right)(2-R)=1$
  • D
    $\left(R^{2}-R-1\right)(2-R)=1$
