Consider a two-particle system with the particles having masses m_(1)and m_(2) . If the first particle is pushed towards the centre of mass through a distance d, by what distance should the second particle be moved so as to keep the centre of mass at the same position?

1.	Consider a two-particle system with the particles having masses m_(1)and m_(2) . If the first particle is pushed towards the centre of mass through a distance d, by what distance should the second particle be moved so as to keep the centre of mass at the same position?
Answer» ANSWER :`d^(L) = m_(1)/m_(2) d`
