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

$A$ block of mass $M$ is tied to one end of a massless rope. The other end of the rope is in the hands of a man of mass $2M$ as shown in the figure. Initially,the block and the man are resting on a rough plank of mass $2M$ as shown in the figure. The whole system is resting on a smooth horizontal surface. The man pulls the rope. The pulley is massless and frictionless. What is the magnitude of the displacement of the plank when the block meets the pulley? (The man does not leave his position on the plank during the pull).

As shown in the figure,two blocks are connected with a light spring. When the spring is at its natural length,velocities are given to them as shown in the figure. Choose the wrong alternative.

Two blocks of masses $m$ and $2m$ are connected by a massless string which passes over a fixed frictionless pulley. If the system of blocks is released from rest,the speed of the centre of mass of the system of two blocks after a time of $5.4 \ s$ is (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \ ms^{-2}$) (in $ms^{-1}$)

In the figure shown,the blocks have equal masses. Friction,mass of the string,and the mass of the pulley are negligible. The magnitude of the acceleration of the centre of mass of the two blocks is (Acceleration due to gravity $= g$).

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:
