Detailed Solution

If Fext=Msystem×acm.

If

 Fext=0, acm=0

Thus statement A is correct

Now kinetic energy of the system of particles = 12Msystem.v2cm

The total K.E. of the particles with respect to the system's centre of mass.
Since the centre of mass's Vcmvelocity has remained constant since Fext=0, (b) is true.

Hence the correct answer is a & b are correct.
