Answer:

The center of mass of three mass in the x-y plane is located at (1,0.5).                  

Explanation:

It is given that, a mass of 6 kg is at (0,0), a mass of 4 kg is at (3,0), and a mass of 2 kg is at (0,3). We need to find the center of mass of the system. Center of mass in x direction  is :

C_x=\dfrac{6\times 0+4\times 3+2\times 0}{6+4+2}\\\\C_x=1

The center of mass in y direction is :

C_y=\dfrac{6\times 0+4\times 0+2\times 3}{6+4+2}\\\\C_y=0.5

So, the center of mass of three mass in the x-y plane is located at (1,0.5).

What is the acceleration of a softball if it has a mass of 0.5 kg and hits the cathers glove with a force of 25n
ioda
Acceleration is found if we have the force and mass. 

With the following equation: F = ma, we can find the missing values. 

F = 25n
M = 0.5 kg
a = ?

a = f/m
a = 25/0.5
a = 50

a = 50 m/s

So, the acceleration is 50 m/s^2
