TS EAMCET · Physics · Center of Mass Momentum and Collision
A system of two particles is having masses \(m_1\) and \(m_2\). If the particle of mass \(m_1\) is pushed towards the centre of mass of particles through a distance \(d\), by what distance the particle of mass \(m_2\) should be moved, so as to keep the centre of mass of particles at the original position?
- A \(\left(\frac{m_1}{m_1+m_2}\right) d\)
- B of
- C \(\left(\frac{m_1}{m_2}\right) d\)
- D \(\left(\frac{m_2}{m_1}\right) d\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(\left(\frac{m_1}{m_2}\right) d\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In two particles system, if the first particle is pushed towards the centre of mass through a distance \(d\). Then to keep the centre of mass at the same position, the second particle should be moved by the distance \(=\left(\frac{m_1}{m_2}\right) d\).
