Question

A system consists of two particles. Particle 1 with mass 2.0 kg is located at (2.0 m, 6.0 m) and has a velocity of (1.6 m/s, 0.1 m/s). Particle 2 with mass 3.5 kg is located at (4.0 m, 1.0 m) and has a velocity of (4.1 m/s, 3.6 m/s).
(a) Determine the position and the velocity of the center of mass of the system.
position: m
velocity: m/s

(b) Sketch the position and velocity vectors for the individual particles and for the center of mass. (Do this on paper. Your instructor may ask you to turn in this work.)
