Two particles A and B with masses mA and mB, respectively, are a distance r0 apart, and both masses are initially at rest. Using Eq. (1.6) on p. 5, determine the amount of time it takes for the two masses to come into contact if mA = 1 kg, mB = 2 kg, and r0 = 1 m. Assume that the two masses are out in space and infinitely far from any other mass.
