In a system,two particles of masses $m_1 = 3 \text{ kg}$ and $m_2 = 2 \text{ kg}$ are placed at a certain distance from each other. The particle of mass $m_1$ is moved towards the center of mass of the system through a distance of $2 \text{ cm}$. In order to keep the center of mass of the system at the original position,the particle of mass $m_2$ should move towards the center of mass by a distance of . . . . . . $\text{cm}$.

$A$ system consists of two particles of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ separated by a distance $r$. If the particles move towards each other with velocities $v_1$ and $v_2$ respectively,the velocity of the centre of mass of the system is:
