$A$ body of mass $2 \, \text{kg}$ moving with a speed of $4 \, \text{m/s}$ makes an elastic collision with another body at rest and continues to move in the original direction but with one-fourth of its initial speed. The speed of the two-body centre of mass is $\frac{x}{10} \, \text{m/s}$. Then the value of $x$ is ..... .

Two particles $P$ and $Q$ each of mass $3m$ lie at rest on the $X$-axis at points $(-a, 0)$ and $(+a, 0)$,respectively. $A$ third particle $R$ of mass $2m$ initially at the origin moves towards the particle $Q$ with velocity $v$. If all the collisions of the system of $3$ particles are elastic and head-on,the total number of collisions in the system is
