Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`C_(1) rightarrow` Position of center of mass of rods AB and CD(nearer to CD, as it is heavy)

`C_(2) rightarrow` Position of center of mass of rods BC and DA.
`C rightarrrow` Overall center of masss of all four rods and it lies in region 1.
