Solution
The correct option is D
⎷[GMR((2√2+1)4)] Acceleration of mass A due to mass B=GM(√2R)2=GM2R2 along the line joining A and B.
Therefore acceleration of A due to B along line joining A and center=GM2R2cos45∘=GM2√2R2
Total acceleration of mass A towards the center=Acceleration due to B+Acceleration due to C+Acceleration due to D
