Two particles of the same mass are moving towards each other with velocities $2v$ and $v$ respectively. The velocity of the centre of mass of the system is:

The figure shows the positions and velocities of two particles. If the particles move under their mutual attraction,then the position of the centre of mass at $t = 1\,s$ is

Two persons of masses $55\, kg$ and $65\, kg$ respectively,are at the opposite ends of a boat. The length of the boat is $3.0\, m$ and it weighs $100\, kg$. The $55\, kg$ man walks up to the $65\, kg$ man and sits with him. If the boat is in still water,the center of mass of the system shifts by ....... $m$.

Two particles $A$ and $B$ initially at rest move towards each other under a mutual force of attraction. At the instant when the velocity of $A$ is $v$ and that of $B$ is $2v$,the velocity of the centre of mass of the system is:

$A$ body of mass $2 \,kg$ is moving towards north with a velocity of $20 \,m \,s^{-1}$ and another body of mass $3 \,kg$ is moving towards east with a velocity of $10 \,m \,s^{-1}$. The magnitude of the velocity of the centre of mass of the system of the two bodies is
