Two bodies of masses `m_(1)` and `m_(2)` are initially at rest a infinite distance apart. They are then allowed to move towards each other under mutual gravitaitonal attraction. Their relative velocity of approach at a separation distance r between them is

A

`[2G((m_(1)-m_(2)))/(r)]^(1//2)`

B

`[(2G)/(r)(m_(1)+m_(2))]^(1//2)`

C

`[(r)/(2G(m_(1)m_(2)))]^(1//2)`

D

`[(2G)/(r)m_(1)m_(2)]^(1//2)`

Two bodies of masses m_1 and m_2 initially at rest at infinite distance apart move towards each other under gravitational force of attraction. Their relative velocity of approach when they are separated by a distance r is (G= universal gravitational constant.)

Two bodies of masses m_1 and m_2 are separated by certain distance. If vecF_12 is the force on m_1 due to m_2 and vecF_21 is the force on m_2 due to m_1 , then
