Suppose that three astronomical objects (1, 2, and 3) are observed to lie on a line, and that the distance from object 1 to object 3 is D. Given that object 1 has 1.5 times the mass of object 3 and eight times the mass of object 2, find the distance (in terms of D) between objects 1 and 2 for which the net force on object 2 is zero.
