Two particles $A$ and $B$,initially at rest,move 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 center of mass of the system is:

  • A
    Zero
  • B
    $v$
  • C
    $\frac{3v}{2}$
  • D
    $3v$

Two particles of masses $1\ kg$ and $3\ kg$ move towards each other under their mutual force of attraction. No other force acts on them. When the relative velocity of approach of the two particles is $2\ m/s,$ their centre of mass has a velocity of $0.5\ m/s$. When the relative velocity of approach becomes $3\ m/s,$ the velocity of the centre of mass is ........ $m/s$.

Two masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ start to move towards each other due to mutual gravitational force. If the distance covered by $m_1$ is $x$,then the distance covered by $m_2$ is:
