Two objects $A$ and $B$ of masses $M$ and $m$ respectively,where $M > m$,are separated by a distance. They move towards each other under the influence of equal forces. At what point will they collide?

$A$ point mass $m_A$ is connected to a point mass $m_B$ by a massless rod of length $l$ as shown in the figure. It is observed that the ratio of the moment of inertia of the system about the two axes $AA$ and $BB$,which are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the rod,is $\frac{I_{BB}}{I_{AA}} = 3$. The distance of the centre of mass of the system from the mass $m_A$ is
