Superposition of 3 point masses
3.40125 × 10^-9 is indeed the correct answer! It was my calculator that ran out of displaying digits to properly show the number. Thank you for your time.- bravoman

Superposition of 3 point masses
wolfram alpha gives 3.40125... × 10^-9 , so that might be the problem. Can you verify that the way I did the question is indeed correct?- bravoman

Superposition of 3 point masses
3.0E-9 is the result my calculator gives me, although the numbers may be cut-off since the calculator display is limited to 10 digits. I'll use an online calculator and see if it makes a difference- bravoman

Superposition of 3 point masses
F (B->C) = G(2)(2)/(0.4^2) = 4G/0.16 F (B->A) = G(2)(2)/(0.3^2) = 4G/0.09 F (B->net) = F(B->C) + F(B->A) Can't add these together since they aren't the same direction, so use Pythagoras' theorem: F^2 (B->net) = F^2(B->C) + F^2(B->A) = sqrt((4G/0.16)^2 + (4G/0.09)^2)- bravoman
