You have confused two of this theorems and taken the one that is not relevant. The one you want is this one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauss%27s_law and as applied to gravity: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauss%27s_law_for_gravity Peter, I suspect you made this mistake by trying to google things for yourself rather than reading a book about physics and gravity. Are you so impoverished that you cannot acquire a book? -- Odd Bodkin --- maker of fine toys, tools, tables
