Homework Statement
calculate the gravity acceleration at an arbitrary location due to a disc of thickness h, radius r and density p
Homework Equations
g=Gm/r^2
The Attempt at a Solution
define r in terms of the vector magnitude from the measurement point to some point on the disc, then hit it with a volume integral? Is there an easier way, say using symmetry?
