Timer Notes s Evaluate Feedback rint Info Three identical uniform meter sticks are placed on the floor. The first stick lies along the y axis from y 0.440 m to y = 1.44 m. The second stick lies along the x axis from x = 0.170 m to x = 1.17 m. The third stick is positioned so that one end is on the x axis at x 0.660 m, and the other end is on the y axis at y = 0.751 m Calculate the location of the center of mass of the meter sticks. Enter the x position first, then the y position 349m 423m Submit AnswerIncorrect. Tries 1/8 P Previous Tries Post Discussion Send Feedback

Explanation / Answer

The Coordinates of first stick are (x1,y1)=[0,0.44+1.44/2]=[0,0.94]

The Coordinates of second stick are (x2,y2)=[0.17+1.17/2 ,0]=[0.67,0]

The coordinates of third stick are (x3,y3)=[0.66/2 ,0.751/2]=[0.33,0.3755]

The X position of center of mass

Xcm=(0+0.67+0.33)/3 =0.3333 m

The Y position of center of mass

Ycm=(0.94+0+0.3755)/3=0.4385 m
