Hi everbody, I have trouble solving the following problem. I need a sollution in 2D, the 3D case does not matter. I have a freely movable Body with mass M and Moment Of Inertia I. The center of gravity of the body is at point A. Some Force F as pulling on the body at point B. If the body...

OK, did not know that it is that simple. I thought there would be some special trick to it. Thanks! Nathan

Hi everybody, I've the following problem: I have a force "F" pulling a body at point "P" while the center of gravity of the body is at "A". The Body has a Moment of Inertia of "I" and a mass of "M". The question is: What is the acceleration of the centre of gravity and what is the...
