Chapter 7, Problem 56
The drawing shows a sulfur dioxide molecule. It consists of two oxygen atoms and a sulfur atom. A sulfur atom is twice as massive as an oxygen atom. Using this information and the data procvided in the drawing, find the y coordinate of the center of mass of the sulfur dioxide molecule. Express your answer in nanometers. (1 nm = 10-9 m).

I really need a hint on how to start this problem. I think I need to find one of the sides of the triangle?
Hate to bother u so much Doc but I really want to get these problems down.
Thanks
