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 . . . . . . $\text{cm}$.
