Four objects are situated along the y axis as follows: a 1.93-kg object is at +2.91 m, a 2.95-kg object is at +2.43 m, a 2.41-kg

object is at the origin, and a 3.99-kg object is at -0.496 m.
Where is the center of mass of these objects?

Answer:

0.958 m

Explanation:

So the total mass of the system is

M = 1.93 + 2.95 + 2.41 + 3.99 = 11.28  kg

let y be the distance from the center of mass to the origin. With the reference to the origin then we have the following equation

My = m_1y_1 + m_2y_2 +m_3y_3 + m_4y_4

11.28y = 1.93*2.91 + 2.95*2.43 + 2.41*0 + 3.99*(-0.496) = 10.806

y = \frac{10.806}{11.28} = 0.958 m

So the center of mass is 0.958 m from the origin

Name 2 ways that sound waves and electromagnetic waves are different. Describe specifically.
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:Sound waves are longitudinal waves that is, are transmitted in the same direction of oscillation of the particles in the medium. Electromagnetic waves are transverse ie, the electric and magnetic fields, which are perpendicular to each other, oscillate perpendicularly to the direction of wave propagation.
