Two equal rods joined at one end are kept on a smooth surface as shown and released. The trajectory of the centre of mass of both rods is:

Two particles $A$ and $B$ (both initially at rest) start moving towards each other under a mutual force of attraction. At the instant, when the speed of $A$ is $v$ and the speed of $B$ is $2v$, the speed of the centre of mass is

$30 \,kg$ boy stands at the far edge of a floating plank, whose near edge is against the shore of a river. The plank is $10 \,m$ long and weighs $10 \,kg$. If the boy walks to the near edge of the plank, how far from the shore does the plank move (in $\,m$)?

$A$ $2\ kg$ body and a $3\ kg$ body are moving along the $x-$ axis. At a particular instant,the $2\ kg$ body has a velocity of $3\ m/s$ and the $3\ kg$ body has a velocity of $2\ m/s$. The velocity of the centre of mass at that instant is

Four particles $A, B, C$ and $D$ with masses $m_A=m, m_B=2m, m_C=3m$ and $m_D=4m$ are at the corners of a square. They have accelerations of equal magnitude $a$ with directions as shown. The acceleration of the centre of mass of the particles is

Consider a two-particle system with particles having masses $m_1$ and $m_2$. If the first particle is pushed towards the centre of mass through a distance $d$,by what distance should the second particle be moved,so as to keep the centre of mass at the same position?
