Three asteroids at asteroid school have just finished recess and are lining up to return to class. OK, that's ridiculous...but imagine that somehow the three asteroids below have miraculously ended up in a perfect line as shown. The relative masses of the asteroids as well as their separations are as given. d d B Mass 2M Mass M Mass M Below, rank the magnitudes of the total gravitational force acting on each asteroid due to the other two in its vicinity. Drag the options below to rank them in order from largest net gravitational force at the top to smallest net gravitational force at the bottom. If two or more values are equal, place them adjacent to each other in alphabetical order
