Point masses ${\mathrm{m}}_1$ and ${\mathrm{m}}_2$ are placed at the opposite ends of a rigid of length L and negligible mass. The rod is to be set rotating about an axis perpendicular to it.

A bob of mass m attached to an inextensible string of length l is suspended from vertical support.  The bob rotates in a horizontal circle with an angular speed $\mathrm{\omega }$ $\mathrm{rad}/\mathrm{s}$ about the vertical.  About the point of suspension.

In free space, a rifle of mass \(M\) shoots a bullet of mass \(m\) at a stationary block of mass \(M\) at a distance \(D\) away from it. When the bullet has moved through a distance \(d\) towards the block, the centre of mass of the bullet-block system is at a distance of:
1. \(\frac{D-d}{M+m}~\text{from the bullet}\)
2. \(\frac{md+ MD}{M+m}~\text{from the block}\)
3. \(\frac{2md+ MD}{M+m}~\text{from the block}\)
4. \(\frac{(D-d)M}{M+m}~\text{from the bullet}\)
