    Finding Center of Mass and Velocity of Three Moving Balls

    Okay I rechecked the book and tried to work out a similar problem I set the location of each mass on the x-axis with Mass A at 0, Mass B at 5 in the +x direction and Mass C at 12 in the + x direction I applied that Xcm= mAxA+mBxB+mCxC/ mA+mB+mC= 7 m To find the location of the center...
