Question:

An object 1 of mass \(m_{1}\) is separated by some distance \(d\) from an object 2 of mass \(2 m_{1}\). An object 3 of mass \(m_{3}\) is to be placed between them. If the potential energy of the three-object system is to be a maximum (closest to zero), should object 3 be placed closer to object 1 , closer to object 2 , or halfway between them?
