All the particles are situated at a distance `R` from the origin. The distance of centre of mass of the body from the origin will be
`(1)` More than `R`
`(2)` Less than `R`
`(3)` Equal to `R`
`(4)` At the origin

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`x_(cm)=(1xx0+2xx1+9)/(6)=(11)/(6)`
`y_(cm)=(1xx0+2xx2-1xx3)/(6)=(4-3)/(6)=(1)/(6)`
`(x_(cm),y_(cm))=((11)/(6),(1)/(6))`
Hint. Centre of mass lie closer to the heavier particle.
