Three masses $\displaystyle 200 \mathrm{~kg}, 300 \mathrm{~kg}$ and $\displaystyle 400$ kg are placed at the vertices of an equilateral triangle with sides $\displaystyle 20$ m . They are rearranged on the vertices of a bigger triangle of side $\displaystyle 25$ m and with the same centre. The work done in this process $\displaystyle \_\_\_\_$J. (Gravitational constant $\displaystyle \mathrm{G}=6.7 \times 10^{-11} \mathrm{~N} \mathrm{~m}^2 / \mathrm{kg}^2$ )
