To find the velocity of the center of mass (CM) of a system of particles, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Center of Mass (CM)**: The center of mass of a system of particles is defined as a point that represents the average position of the mass distribution in the system. The position vector \( R_{cm} \) of the center of mass can be expressed as: \[ R_{cm} = \frac{\sum m_i r_i}{M} ...
