To solve the problem, we need to find the masses of two balls given that the mass of one ball is four times the mass of the other ball, the distance between them, and the gravitational force acting between them. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Define the Variables**: Let the mass of the second ball be \( M_2 \). Then, according to the problem, the mass of the first ball \( M_1 \) can be expressed as: \[ M_1 = 4M_2 ...
