The figure shows a man of mass $m$ standing at the end $A$ of a trolley of mass $M$ placed at rest on a smooth horizontal surface. The man starts moving towards the end $B$ with a velocity $u_{rel}$ with respect to the trolley. The length of the trolley is $L$. When the man reaches the end $B$,the distance moved by the trolley with respect to ground is

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

Two skaters $A$ and $B$ of weights in the ratio $5 : 7$ start facing each other $6\,m$ apart on a horizontal smooth surface. They pull on a rope stretched between them. How far has each moved when they meet?

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

Two bodies of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ $(m_1 > m_2)$ are tied to the ends of a string which passes over a light frictionless pulley. The masses are initially at rest and then released. The acceleration of the centre of mass is
