Find the position of centre of mass of the system of 3 objects of masses 1 kg, 2kg and 3 kg located at the corner of an equilateral triangle of side 1 m. Take 1 kg mass object at the origin and 2kg along x-axis.

Explanation

`x_(cm)=(m_(1)x_(1)+m_(2)x_(2)+m_(3)x_(3))/(m_(1)+m_(2)+m_(3))`
`impliesx_(cm)=(1xx0+2xx1+3xx(1)/(2))/(1+2+3)impliesx_(cm)=(7)/(12)m`
`Y_(cm)=(m_(1)y_(1)+m_(2)y_(2)+m_(3)y_(3))/(m_(1)+m_(2)+m_(3))`
`impliesY_(cm)=(1xx0+2xx0+3xx(sqrt(3))/(2))/(1+2+3)impliesY_(cm)=(sqrt(3))/(4)m`
`:.` Co-ordinates of centre of mass `(x_(cm),y_(cm))=((7)/(12)m,(sqrt(3))/(4)m)`
