Consider a system of two particles having masses m1 and m2. If the particle of mass m1 is pushed towards the centre of mass of particles through a distance d, by what distance would the particle of mass m2 move so as to keep the centre of mass of particles at the original position?

m2 d m1 -
m1 d m1 + m2 -
m1 d m2 - d

Correct Option: C
m1d1 = m2d2 ⇒ d2 = | = | d | ||
m1 | m2 |
