Calculate the total force on the Earth due to Venus, Jupiter, and Saturn, assuming all four planets are in a line. The masses are Mv=0.815ME, MJ=318ME, Msat=95.1ME, Msun=1.99x10^30kg, ME=5.98x10^24kg and the mean distances of the four planets from the Sun are 108, 150, 778, and 1430 million km. Apparently the answer is 9.56x10^17 N but I'm not sure how to get to that .-.
