Two bodies of different masses 2kg and 4...

Two bodies of different masses `2kg` and `4kg` are moving with velocities `2m//s` and `10m//s` towards each other due to mutual gravitational attraction. Then the velocity of the centre of mass is

A

`5 "ms"^(-1)`

B

`6 "ms"^(-1)`

C

`8 "md"^(-1)`

D

Zero

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Internal force does not change the velocity of c.m so `V_(cm) ` = zero
