pls give me the step by step ans for this question guys

Let a coordinate system be introduced in the system where,
- O is taken as the origin.
- x axis should be along PQ such that +x is from O to Q, and -x is from O to P.
- y axis should be along RO such that +y is from O to R.
Given that the mass of each particle is 1 kg.
So the gravitational force of attraction experienced by the mass placed at R due that at P is,
since the length of RP is
And the gravitational force of attraction experienced by the mass placed at R due that at Q is also,
since the length of RQ is
Since and we see that is a right triangle, right angled at R. So the net force acts along
Hence the net gravitational force experienced by the mass placed at R due the two masses at P and Q is,
Question:
Two particles each of mass 1kg are placed at P and Q such that PO=OQ=L.
The gravitational force experienced by another 1kg mass placed at R, where OR = L is
Theory :
⇒Newtons law of Gravitation
Where , G = Universal gravitation constant
and r is distance between two Masses.
Solution :
Given : Two particles each of mass 1kg are placed at P and Q such that
PO=OQ=L and OR = L
we have to find The gravitational force experienced by another 1kg mass placed at R .
__________________________
PO=OQ=L and OR = L
⇒PR = RQ = √2L
Now resultant of these forces
put m = 1 kg
