(II) (a) Suppose we have three masses, m i,m 2, and m3,that initially are infinitely far apart from each other. Showthat the work needed to bring them to the positions shownin Fig. 8-39 is WG ( ml m2 + minis + m2m3\V r12 r13 r23 energy of the system, or the potential energy of one or two ofthe objects? (c) Is W equalto the binding energy ofthe systemthat is, equalto the energy required toseparate the componentsby an infinite distance?Explain.
