If the potential energy of the three-object system is to be a maximum (closest to zero), should object 3 be placed closer to object 1, closer to object 2, or halfway between them?

Object 3 should be placed closer to object 1.
Object 3 should be placed on a halfway between object 2 and object 1.
Object 3 should be placed closer to object 2.
Solution
I think that Object 3 should be placed closer to object 2.
Based on radiometric dating of Apollo rock samples, the rocks have been detected to be about 4.5 Billion years old.
Hope this helps!
