7 Two point masses each of mass M are kept fixed at rest at

7 Two point masses each of mass M are kept fixed at rest at points A and B respectively A third m is released from infinity with a negligible speed so that it can move along y axis under the influence of mutual gravitational attraction on it due to point masses kept at A and B respectively as shown in the figure 1 Figure 2 represents the potential energy of system incudes m M at A and M at B with position of m at y axis Neglect any other forces other than gravity given Gm d 12 Joule m 6 kg Choose the correct option s m 2m
