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 ........ $m/s$.

  • A
    $0$
  • B
    $0.75$
  • C
    $1.25$
  • D
    $0.5$
