To find the distance of the center of mass from point A in the given problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define the coordinates of the points We have a right-angled triangle ABC with: - Mass \( m_1 = 0.2 \, \text{kg} \) at point A (0, 0) - Mass \( m_2 = 0.3 \, \text{kg} \) at point B (0, 2) (since AB = 2 cm along the Y-axis) - Mass \( m_3 = 0.4 \, \text{kg} \) at point C (1.5, 2) (we will find the x-coordinate of C using the Pythagorean theorem) ...
