Two stars of masses 3 xx 10^(31) kg each...

Two stars of masses `3 xx 10^(31)` kg each, and at distance `2 xx 10^(11)` m rotate in a plane about their common centre of mass O. A meteorite passes through O moving perpendicular to the star's rotation plane. In order to escape from the gravitational field of this double star, the minimum speed that meteorite should have at O is (Take Graviational constant `G = 6.67 xx 10^(-11) Nm^(2) kg^(-2)`)
