The x and y coordinates of the center of mass of the three-particle system shown below are :

A

0, 0

B

1.3m, 1.7m

C

1.4m, 1.9m

D

1.9m, 2.5m

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`x_(cm) = (4(0) + 5(3) + 6(1))/(4 + 5 + 6) = (21)/15 = 1.4 m , " "y_(cm) = (4(0) + 5(2) + 6(3))/(4 + 5 + 6) = 28/15 = 1.9 m`.
