Two men $A$ and $B$ are standing on a plank. $B$ is at the middle of the plank and $A$ is at the left end of the plank. The bottom surface of the plank is smooth. The system is initially at rest and the masses are as shown in the figure. $A$ and $B$ start moving such that the position of $B$ remains fixed with respect to the ground and $A$ meets $B$. Then the point where $A$ meets $B$ is located at

$A$ $2\ kg$ body and a $3\ kg$ body are moving along the $x-$ axis. At a particular instant,the $2\ kg$ body has a velocity of $3\ m/s$ and the $3\ kg$ body has a velocity of $2\ m/s$. The velocity of the centre of mass at that instant is

Two blocks of masses $m$ and $2m$ are connected by a massless string which passes over a fixed frictionless pulley. If the system of blocks is released from rest,the speed of the centre of mass of the system of two blocks after a time of $5.4 \ s$ is (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \ ms^{-2}$) (in $ms^{-1}$)
