Consider a system of two identical particles. One of the particle is at rest and other has an acceleration `vec(a)`. The centre of mass has an acceleration

A

2a

B

`a//2`

C

a

D

`(2a)/(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`a _(cm ) = ( m _(1) a _(1) + m _(2) a _(2))/( m _(1) + m _(2)) = ( 0 + ma )/(2m) = (a)/(2)`
