Answer:</h2>
D. (1m, 0.5m)
<h2>
Explanation:</h2>
The center of mass (or center of gravity) of a system of particles is the point where the weight acts when the individual particles are replaced by a single particle of equivalent mass. For the three masses, the coordinates of the center of mass C(x, y) is given by;
x = (m₁x₁ + m₂x₂ + m₃x₃) / M ----------------(i)
y = (m₁y₁ + m₂y₂ + m₃y₃) / M ----------------(ii)
Where;
M = sum of the masses
m₁ and x₁ = mass and position of first mass in the x direction.
m₂ and x₂ = mass and position of second mass in the x direction.
m₃ and x₃ = mass and position of third mass in the x direction.
y₁ , y₂ and y₃ = positions of the first, second and third masses respectively in the y direction.
From the question;
m₁ = 6kg
m₂ = 4kg
m₃ = 2kg
x₁ = 0m
x₂ = 3m
x₃ = 0m
y₁ = 0m
y₂ = 0m
y₃ = 3m
M = m₁ + m₂ + m₃ = 6 + 4 + 2 = 12kg
Substitute these values into equations (i) and (ii) as follows;
x = ((6x0) + (4x3) + (2x0)) / 12
x = 12 / 12
x = 1 m
y = (6x0) + (4x0) + (2x3)) / 12
y = 6 / 12
y = 0.5m
Therefore, the center of mass of the system is at (1m, 0.5m)
I would rather be hit by the deflated ball because it wouldn't hurt as bad because it wouldn't have a lot of weight to hurt me in anyway
nuclear fusion- produces huge amounts of energy.
Answer:
body position 4 is (-1,133, -1.83)
Explanation:
The concept of center of gravity is of great importance since in this all external forces are considered applied, it is defined by
x_cm = 1 /M ∑
m_{i}
y_cm = 1 /M ∑ y_{i} mi
Where M is the total mass of the body, mi is the mass of each element
give us the mass and position of this masses
body 1
m1 = 2.00 ka
x1 = 0 me
y1 = 0 me
body 2
m2 = 2.20 kg
x2 = 0m
y2 = 5 m
body 3
m3 = 3.4 kg
x3 = 2.00 m
y3 = 0
body 4
m4 = 6 kg
x4=?
y4=?
mass center position
x_cm = 0
y_cm = 0
let's apply to the equations of the initial part
X axis
M = 2.00 + 2.20 + 3.40
M = 7.6 kg
0 = 1 / 7.6 (2 0 + 2.2 0 + 3.4 2 + 6 x4)
x4 = -6.8 / 6
x4 = -1,133 m
Axis y
0 = 1 / 7.6 (2 0 + 2.20 5 +3.4 0 + 6 y4)
y4 = -11/6
y4 = -1.83 m
body position 4 is (-1,133, -1.83)
