A Very Dense 1500-Kg Point Mass (A) and a Dense

A very dense 1500-kg point mass (A) and a dense 1200-kg point mass (B) are held in place 1.00 m apart on a frictionless table. A third point mass is placed between the other two at a point that is 20.0 cm from B along the line connecting A and B. When the third mass is suddenly released, find the magnitude and direction
(toward A or toward B) of its initial acceleration. (G = 6.67 × 10^-11 N ∙ m²/kg²)
