    Density and centre of mass problem

    Ohh I see! To steamking, the formula that I posted on the original post. I asked my lecturer and she said that with this formula I use the half-length. I was not listening properly and I thought she said you use the full length. I'm doing all of this for the first time but I got the answer...

    Density and centre of mass problem

    Homework Statement A machine part consists of a thin, uniform 4.00 kg (A) bar that is 1.50 m (X) long, hinged perpendicular to a similar bar, placed vertically downward, of mass 3.00 kg (B) and length 1.80 m (Y). The longer bar has a small but dense 2.00 kg (C) ball at one end (the ball...
