If the external force acting on a system of particle is zero then …………..

Assertion:- In two particle system when viewed from center of mass reference frame, if one particle slops then other one will also stop simultaneously, irrespective of external forces acting on system. Reason:- Centre of mass of a system is a point about which total momentum of system is always constant and non-zero.
