"increments of 8" means the major divisions are 0,8,16,24 ? 

<span>x axis, calculate the moment arms from 0 </span>
<span>3x4, 2x12, 1x20 </span>
<span>from an arbitrary C </span>
<span>3(c-4) + 2(c-12) + (c-20) = 0 </span>
<span>3c - 12 + 2c -24 + c - 20 = 0 </span>
<span>6c = 56 </span>
<span>c = 9.33 </span>

<span>y axis </span>
<span>3x3, 1x12, 2x20 </span>
<span>3(c-4) + 1(c-12) +2 (c-20) = 0 </span>
<span>3c - 12 + c - 12 + 2c - 40 = 0 </span>
<span>6c = 64 </span>
<span>c = 10.67 </span>

<span>so center is x = 9.33, y = 10.67 </span>

Answer:

(\bar{X},\bar{Y})=(2\frac{1}{3},2\frac{2}{3})

Explanation:

Since the given sheet is of steel hence it has a homogeneous density, each piece of square measurement according to the graph will have <em>equal mass</em>.

<u>For X coordinate of center of mass:</u>

\bar{X}=\frac{m_1.x_1+m_2.x_2+m_3.x_3+m_4.x_4+m_5.x_5+m_6.x_6}{m_1+m_2+m_3+m_4+m_5+m_6}

where:

x_1,x_2,x_3,x_4,x_5,x_6 are the respective geometric abscissa of square pieces.

Since,

Respective masses of the square pieces

m_1=m_2=m_3=m_4=m_5=m_6=m\,(let)

So,

\bar{X}=m\times \frac{(x_1+x_2+x_3+x_4+x_5+x_6)}{6m}

\bar{X}= \frac{(3+1+1+1+3+5)}{6}

\bar{X}=2\frac{1}{3}

<u>For Y coordinate of center of mass:</u>

\bar{Y}=\frac{m_1.y_1+m_2.y_2+m_3.y_3+m_4.y_4+m_5.y_5+m_6.y_6}{m_1+m_2+m_3+m_4+m_5+m_6}

where:

y_1,y_2,y_3,y_4,y_5,y_6 are the respective geometric ordinates of square pieces.

Since,

Respective masses of the square pieces

m_1=m_2=m_3=m_4=m_5=m_6=m\,(let)

So,

\bar{Y}=m\times \frac{(y_1+y_2+y_3+y_4+y_5+y_6)}{6m}

\bar{Y}= \frac{(5+5+3+1+1+1)}{6}

\bar{Y}=2\frac{2}{3}

∴Center of mass of the given figure is:

(\bar{X},\bar{Y})=(2\frac{1}{3},2\frac{2}{3})

A water wave has a speed of 23.0 meters/second. If the wave’s frequency is 0.0680 hertz, what is the wavelength?
tankabanditka [31]
     Using the Fundamental Equation of Wave, we have:

v=\lambda f \\ \lambda= \frac{23}{0.068}  \\ \boxed {\lambda \approx 338m}

What is sedentary lifestyle?
Effectus [21]
A sedentary lifestyle is when you don't make any exercise. For example, if I spent a whole week just sitting down answering questions, that would be an example of a sedentary lifestyle, because I'm not running or jogging. Having that type of lifestyle can make you fat and get health problems.

Have a nice day! :)
