Expert Solution
Step 1

(given)

Mass of Moon A = 1.69×1020 kg

Mass of Moon B = 7.02×1019kg

  Mass of planet = 4.73×1022 kg

Separation between Moon A and Moon B = 452000000 m

   Separation between Moon A and planet = 9440000000 m

Gravitational Force is

F =Gm1m2d2

where m1 and m2 are the masses of two bodies,

            d is the separation between two bodies,

            G is the universal gravitational constant.
