Two objects of mass kg and kg respectively are connected to the two ends of a rigid rod of length m with negligible mass. The distance of the center of mass of the system from the kg mass is:
m
m
m
m
To find the center of mass of the system, we use the formula:Given:⢠kg (mass of the first object)⢠kg (mass of the second object)⢠Length of the rod mAssume the 10 kg mass is at position m (left end of the rod).Then the 20 kg mass is at position m (right end of the rod).Substitute the values into the center of mass formula: mTherefore, the distance of the center of mass from the 10 kg mass is m.This corresponds to Option 2.
