Answer

  1. The gravitational field is zero.
  2. The gravitational potential is same everywhere.
  3. The gravitational field is same everywhere.

Explanation:

Inside a uniform spherical shell, the gravitational field is the same everywhere and is equal to zero. The gravitational potential has a constant value inside a uniform spherical shell.
