Let it be a system formed by two particles 1 and 2 of mass m1 and m2, respectively. Show that the position of the center of mass is located at an internal point to the line segment that connects the positions of particles 1 and 2. This result allows us to immediately estimate the position of the center of mass of a two-particle system.
