  • question_answer
    Two particles of equal mass m are projected from the ground with speed \[{{v}_{1}}\] and \[{{v}_{2}}\] at angles \[{{\theta }_{1}}\] and \[{{\theta }_{2}}\] as shown in figure. The centre of mass of the two particles

    A) Will move in a parabolic path for any values of \[{{v}_{1}},{{v}_{2}},{{\theta }_{1}}\] and \[{{\theta }_{2}}\]

    B) Can move in a vertical line

    C)  Can move in a horizontal line

    D)  Will move in a straight line for any values of \[{{v}_{1}},{{v}_{2}},{{\theta }_{1}}\] and \[{{\theta }_{2}}\].                                                      

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] Centre of mass will move in a vertical line if \[{{v}_{1}}\,\,\cos {{\theta }_{1}}={{v}_{2}}\cos {{\theta }_{2}}\]. Otherwise for any other values, it will follow a parabolic path.
