### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Lever Arrangement**: - A lever consists of three main components: the fulcrum (pivot point), the load (weight being lifted), and the effort (force applied). - In this scenario, the fulcrum is at one end, the load is at the other end, and the effort is applied in between them. 2. **Drawing the Diagram**: - Draw a horizontal line to represent the lever. ...

In a certain experiments to measure the ratio of charge to mass of elementry particles, a surprising result was obtained in which two particle, a surprising result was obtained in which two particles moved in such a way that the distance between them always remained constant. It was also noticed that this two-particle system was isolated from all other particles and no force was acting on this system except the force between these two mases. After careful observation followed bu intensive calculation, it was deduced that velocity of these two particles was always opposite in direction and magnitude of velocity was 10^(3) ms^(-1) and 2 xx 10^(3) ms^(-1) for first and second particle, respectively, and mass of these particles were 2 xx 10^(-30) kg and 10^(-30)kg , respectively. Distance between them were 12Å(1Å = 10^(- 10)m). if the first particle is stopped for a moment and then released, the velocity of center of mass of the system just after the release will be
