Question

For a system of two point masses m1 and m2 if
they are moved distances d1 and d2 respectively
from centre of mass in opposite directions, if po-
sition of centre of mass will not change
​

Answer 1

Answer:

The centre of mass (CoM) is the point relative to the system of particles in an object. This is that point of the system of particles that embarks the average position of the system in relation to the mass of the object. At the centre of mass, the weighted mass gives a sum equal to zero. It is the point where any uniform force applied on the object acts.

Answer 2

Answer:

The particle should be moved by a distance. \frac{m1d}{m2}. to keep the centre of mass of the system at the original position.
