As we learned

Gravitational field Intensity due to uniform disc -

For Uniform disc

 


 

\Theta \rightarrow Angle with axis

a \rightarrow Radius of disc

At the centre of the disc 

I=0

At a point on its axis

I=\frac{2GM}{a^{2}}\left ( 1-\cos \Theta \right )

From the figure, we can say that

r= 3m and a= 4m

SoCos\theta =\frac{3}{5}

So I=\frac{2GM}{a^{2}}\left ( 1-\cos \Theta \right )=\frac{2*6.67*10^{-11}*5}{4}(1-\frac{3}{5})=6.67*10^{-11}
