In the given figure four rods `AB,BC,CD` and `DA` have mass `m`, `2m`, `3m` and `4m` respectively In Which of the regions (numberd `1,2,3,4`) the centre of mass of system lies?

A

`xgt2, ygt2`

B

`xgt2, ylt2`

C

`xgt2, ylt2`

D

`xgt2, ygt2`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`y_(cm)=(sum m_(i)y_(i))/(sum m_(i))` and `x_(cm)=(sum m_(i)x_(i))/(summ_(i))`

Three point like equal masses m_(1), m_(2) and m_(3) are connected to the ends of a massless rod of length L which lies at rest on a smooth horizontal plane. At t = 0 , an explosion occurs between m_(2) and m_(3) , and as a result, mass m_(3) is detached from the rod, and moves with a known velocity v at an angle of 30^(@) with the y -axis. Assume that the masses m_(2) and m_(3) are unchanged during the explosion. What is the velocity of the centre of mass of the system consisting of three masses, after the expulsion?
