Rank in order, from largest to smallest, the absolute
values |Ug| of the gravitational potential energies of these
pairs of masses. The numbers give the relative masses
and distances.
In absolute value:
1. Ue > Ua = Ub = Ud > Uc
2. Ub > Uc > Ua = Ud > Ue
3. Ub > Uc > Ud > Ua > Ue
4. Ue > Ua = Ub >Uc > Ud
5. Ue > Ud > Ua > Ub = Uc
