I apologize for the simple question, but I have not been able to find the answer.
For the inner portion of a galaxy rotation curve (where the outer portion is the part invariant to distance and the inner part is where rotational velocity increases with radius), how much is simply due to Newton's shell theorem, i.e., additional mass enclosed by the radius?
