Q. A mass $m$ is rest on an inclined plane of mass $M$ which is further resting on a smooth horizontal plane. Now if the mass starts moving the position of C.M. of mass of system willPhysics Question Image

System of Particles and Rotational Motion

Solution:

The mass move under the influence of gravitational pull which acts along the vertical. Thus CM changes along vertical while it remains unchanged in the horizontal direction.
