At an instant when a particle of mass 80 g has a velocity of 25 m/s in the positive y direction, a 75-g particle has a velocity of 20 m/s in the positive x direction. What is the speed of the center of mass of this two-particle system at this instant?
 a. 16 m/s
  b. 45 m/s
  c. 23 m/s
  d. 20 m/s
  e. 36 m/s

Question 2

 a. 60 m/s2
  b. 56 m/s2
  c. 40 m/s2
  d. 50 m/s2
