Four point masses each with a mass of 4.90 kg are positioned at the corners of a rectangle with dimensions 1.80 meters by 3.00 meters. Assume these are the only masses that are gravitationally relevant.

What is the magnitude of the gravitational force on a corner mass due to the other three masses?
