The problem of attraction of an infinitesimal particle by the gravitational force induced by a massive body of finite dimension on a plane is considered. We study the singularity problem of the solutions associated to this problem in the case when the massive body has the form of a straight segment, annulus disk or disk with constant linear mass density.
