Questions  

Two particles each of mass m are placed at points A and C such that AB =BC =L as shown in fig.

 

 

  The gravitational force on a third particle placed at D at a distance I metre on the perpendicular bisector of the line AC, is

a
Gm22L2 along BD
b
Gm22L2 along DB
c
Gm2L2 along AC
d
none of these

detailed solution

Correct option is B

Here F=Gm2(2L)2=Gm22L2The resultant force on mass m placed at point D is F' = 2 F cos 45o long DB=2Gm22L2×12=Gm22L2 along DB
