Three identical very dense masses of 3800 kg each are placed on the x axis. One mass is at x1 = -

230 cm, one is at the origin, and one is at
x2 = 350 cm. Take the gravitational constant to be G = 6.67×10−11N⋅m2
/kg2
a) calculate the gravitational attraction of the object located at x1 on the object sitting at the
origin. (magnitude and direction. Take the direction from the origin to the right as
POSITIVE)
b) Calculate the gravitational attraction of the object located at X2 on the object at the origin.
(magnitude and direction)
c) Calculate the total gravitational attraction of the objects located at x1 and the object sitting at
x2 on the mass located at the origin. (magnitude and direction).
