Three point particles are fixed in position in an xy plane. Two of them, particle A of mass 6 g and particle B of mass 12 g, are shown in the figure witha separation of daB = 0.574 m at angle O = 3O°. Particle C, with mass 7 g, is not shown. The net gravitational force acting on particle A due to particles B and C is 2.94 x 10*14 N at an angle of -163.8°. from the positive x axis. What are (a) the x coordinate and (b) the y coordinate of particle C?

Your answer is partially correct.
Three point particles are fixed in position in an xy plane. Two of them, particle A of mass 6 g and particle B of mass 12 g, are shown in
the figure with a separation of dAB = 0.574 m at angle O = 30°. Particle C, with mass 7 g, is not shown. The net gravitational force
acting on particle A due to particles B and C is 2.94 x 1014 N at an angle of -163.8°. from the positive x axis. What are (a) the x
coordinate and (b) the y coordinate of particle C?
