Answer:
The point of collision from a smaller particle is 8 meters i.e.option(1).
Explanation:
We will use the following formula to solve this question,
(1)
Where,
x=point where the two particles will collide
r₁,r₂=respective position of particles
m₁,m₂=respective masses of particles
From the question we have,
m₁=M
m₂=4M
r₁=0
r₂=10m
By substituting the values in equation (1) we get;
Hence, the point of collision from a smaller particle is 8 meters i.e.option(1).
