Two men A and B are standing on a plank. B is at the middle of the plank and A is at the left end of the plank. The system is initially at rest and masses are as shown in the figure. A and B start moving such that the position of B remains fixed with respect to ground, then A meets B. Then, the point where A meets B is located at,

In the figure shown, the system is at rest, initially. Two persons, A and B, of masses 40 kg each, move with speeds v1 and v2, respectively, towards each other on a plank lying on a smooth horizontal surface as shown in the figure. The plank travels a distance of 20 m towards right direction in 5 s. (Here, v1 and v2 are given with respect to the plank). Then,

Two identical rods are joined at one of their ends by a pin. The joint is smooth and rods are free to rotate about the joint. The rods are released in vertical plane on a smooth surface as shown in the figure. The displacement of the joint from its initial position to the final position is (i.e., when the rods lie straight on the ground),
