To solve the problem, we need to find the distance from particle A where a small particle of mass \( m \) can be placed such that the net gravitational force acting on it is zero. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Understand the Setup We have two masses: - Mass \( M \) (particle A) - Mass \( 4M \) (particle B) These two masses are separated by a distance of \( 2.73 \, \text{m} \). ...
