Or if it is moving to begin with,
-
it'll maintain a constant velocity.
-
So, here's another example.
-
Now you can obviously generalize this to more than one dimension.
-
If you're living in two dimensions,
-
you will introduce an x coordinate and introduce a y coordinate
-
and then you will have the center of mass
-
as M·R double dot equals F,
-
and R would be m1·r1 + m2·r2
-
divided by the total mass;
-
r1 and r2 are just the location
-
now in two dimensions of these two masses.
