Solution

The correct option is A
Velocity of centre of mass $v_{c m} = \frac{m_{1} v_{1} + m_{2} v_{2} + m_{3} v_{3}}{m_{1} + m_{2} + m_{3}}$
$v_{c m} = \frac{20 \times 10 ˆ i + 30 \times 10 ˆ j + 50 \times 10 ˆ k}{100} = \frac{200 ˆ i + 300 ˆ j + 500 ˆ k}{100}$
$v_{c m} = 2 ˆ i + 3 ˆ j + 5 ˆ k$ .
