A very dense 1500-kg point mass (A) and a dense 1800-kg point
mass (B) are held in place 1.00 m apart on a frictionless table. A
third point mass is placed between the other two at a point that is
20.0 cm from B along the line connecting A and B. When the third
mass is suddenly released, find the magnitude and direction (toward
A or toward B) of its initial acceleration. (G = 6.67 × 10-11 N ∙
m2/kg2)
