We calculate the potential between various configurations of membranes
and gravitons in M(atrix) theory. The computed potentials agree with
the short distance potentials between corresponding 2-branes and O-bra
ne configurations in type IIA string theory, bound to a large number o
f O-branes to account for the boost to the infinite momentum frame. We
show that, due to the large boost, these type IIA configurations are
almost supersymmetric, so that the short and long distance potentials
actually agree. Thus the M(atrix) theory is able to reproduce correct
long distance behavior in these cases. (C) 1997 Published by Elsevier
