Homework Statement


Center of gravity for a shape T both arm are 60mm long and 6mm wide.




Homework Equations



dont know the equation but seeing as there is not wieght involved am guessing the formula isn't that hard. a discription of the formula and how to use it would help a lot




The Attempt at a Solution



if both arms are 60mm and 6mm wide shouldent the center og gravity be where the to arms connect?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Been checking the net and found that for a uniform shape i should just do H/2

so (60+6)/2 = 33m so the (cg) is 33m from the bottom of the T shape?
