The distance of the planet Pluto from the Sun is $40$ times the distance of the Earth from the Sun. Assuming the masses of the Earth and Pluto are equal,find the ratio of the gravitational force exerted by the Sun on the Earth to that on Pluto.

Two point masses $A$ and $B$ having masses in the ratio $4 : 3$ are separated by a distance of $1\, m$. When another point mass $C$ of mass $M$ is placed in between $A$ and $B$,the gravitational force between $A$ and $C$ is $\frac{1}{3}$ of the gravitational force between $B$ and $C$. Then the distance of $C$ from $A$ is:
