Astrophysics: Gravitational Fields for Non-Uniform Density Planets
Suppose a planet has a mass M and radius R but a non-uniform density rho(r) = A*r. What is the value of A? What is the magnitude of the gravitational field inside and outside the planet?
Of course there's a numerical model using python and random numbers.
Here is the code
