$A$ particle of mass $10 \text{ g}$ is moving towards east with a velocity of $10 \text{ ms}^{-1}$ and another particle of mass $15 \text{ g}$ is moving towards north with a velocity of $5 \text{ ms}^{-1}$. The magnitude of the velocity of the centre of mass of the system of the two particles is (in $\text{ ms}^{-1}$)

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 masses $2 \ kg$ and $1 \ kg$ are moving along the same line with speeds of $2 \ m/s$ and $5 \ m/s$ respectively. If both particles are moving in the same direction,the speed of the centre of mass is $v_1$. If both particles are moving in opposite directions,the speed of the centre of mass is $v_2$. Find $v_1$ and $v_2$.

Two masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ are connected by a massless spring of spring constant $k$ and unstretched length $l$. The masses are placed on a frictionless straight channel,which we consider our $X$-axis. They are initially at rest at $x=0$ and $x=l$,respectively. At $t=0$,a velocity of $v_0$ is suddenly imparted to the first particle. At a later time $t$,the centre of mass of the two masses is at

Two bodies of $6 \,kg$ and $4 \,kg$ masses have their velocities $5 \hat{i}-2 \hat{j}+10 \hat{k}$ and $10 \hat{i}-2 \hat{j}+5 \hat{k}$ respectively. Then the velocity of their centre of mass is
