Answer

Assume that side of equilateral triangle

Is L.

Gravitational field at center of equilateral triangle is given by

"\\vec{g}=G\\frac{m_1}{(\\frac{l}{\\sqrt{3}})^2}\\hat{j}-G\\frac{m_2}{(\\frac{l}{\\sqrt{3}})^2}cos60\u00b0\\hat{j}+G\\frac{m_2}{(\\frac{l}{\\sqrt{3}})^2}sin60\u00b0\\hat{i}-G\\frac{m_3}{(\\frac{l}{\\sqrt{3}})^2}cos60\u00b0\\hat{j}-G\\frac{m_3}{(\\frac{l}{\\sqrt{3}})^2}sin60\u00b0\\hat{j}"
