A boy is standing at the centre of a boat, which is free to move on water. If the masses of the boy and the boat are m1 and m2 respectively, and the boy move s a distance of 1 m forward, then the movement of the boat is ..... metres :
- \(\frac{\mathrm{m}_{1}}{\mathrm{~m}_{1}+\mathrm{m}_{2}}\)
- \(\frac{\mathrm{m}_{2}}{\mathrm{~m}_{1}+\mathrm{m}_{2}}\)
- \(\frac{\mathrm{m}_{1}}{\mathrm{~m}_{2}}\)
- \(\frac{\mathrm{m}_{2}}{\mathrm{~m}_{1}}\)
Answer
(C) m _ 1 ~m _ 2
