lets assume their are 6 point sized masses,

Question Image

The magnitude of gravitational force on A due to B, F is given by FABorAF=Gmm(AB)2=Gmml2.

The magnitude of gravitational force on A due to C,E is given by FACorAE=Gmm(AE)2=Gmm(3l)2=Gm23l2 

The magnitude of gravitational force on A due to D is given by FAD=Gmm(AD)2=Gmm(2l)2=Gm24l2

 Resultant force due to FAB and FAF is FR1=Gm2l2 along AD

 Resultant force due to FAC and FAE is FR2=Gm23l2 along AD

Net force acting on A along AD is given by FR=FR1+FR2+FAD=Gm2l2+Gm23l2+Gm24l2

Net force acting on A= Gm2l254+13
