In the given figure,if the speed given to block $A$ is $10\,m/s$ and block $B$ is initially at rest,then the speed of the centre of mass after $10\,s$ will be ....... $m/s$.

Two particles of equal mass have velocities $\overrightarrow{v}_1=4 \hat{i} \text{ ms}^{-1}$ and $\overrightarrow{v}_2=4 \hat{j} \text{ ms}^{-1}$. The first particle has an acceleration $\overrightarrow{a}_1=(5 \hat{i}+5 \hat{j}) \text{ ms}^{-2}$ while the acceleration of the other particle is zero. The centre of mass of the two particles moves in a path of

On a smooth horizontal plane,a uniform string of mass $M$ and length $L$ is lying in a state of rest. $A$ man of the same mass $M$ is standing next to one end of the string. Now,the man starts collecting the string. Finally,the man collects all the string and puts it in his pocket. What is the displacement of the man with respect to the Earth in the process of collection?
