Three particles of masses `1 kg, 2 kg` and `3 kg` are situated at the corners of an equilateral triangle move at speed `6ms^(-1), 3ms^(-1)` and `2ms^(-1)` respectively. Each particle maintains a direction towards the particles at the next corners symmetrically. Find velocity of `CM` of the system at this instant

A

(a) `3ms^(-1)`

B

(b) `5ms^(-1)`

C

(c) `6ms^(-1)`

D

(d)`zero`

Text Solution
