Two uniform solid spheres of equal radii , but with masses and ; have a centre to centre separation , as shown in figure. A particle of mass is projected from the surface of the sphere of mass directly towards the centre of the second sphere. The minimum speed of the projectile so that it reaches the surface of the second sphere is
