To find the gravitational force of attraction on any one of the particles placed at the vertices of an equilateral triangle, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Visualize the Setup:** - We have three identical masses (m) located at the vertices of an equilateral triangle with each side of length (a). Let's label the masses as \( m_1 \), \( m_2 \), and \( m_3 \). 2. **Identify the Forces:** ...
