Consider a thin disc of radius R and consisting of a material with constant mass density (per unit of area) g. Use cylindrical coordinates, with the z-axis perpendicular to the plane of the disc, and the origin at the disc's centre. We are going to calculate the gravitational potential, and the gravitational field, in points on the z-axis only. the gravitational potential p(2) set up by that disc is given by dr'; ()² + z² sp(2) = 27Gg
