[QUOTE="Acemave, post: 5247291, member: 572945"] [h2]Homework Statement [/h2] a thin uniform wire is bent to form two equal sides AB and AC of triangle ABC , where AB=AC=5cm . the third side BC , of length 6cm is made from uniform wire of twice the density of the first . the distance of centre of mass from A is ? [h2]Homework Equations[/h2] x [SUB]centre of mass[/SUB] = m1R1+m2r2/ sum of masses(where r= centre of mass of particle in sys.)λ=m/l ( where m= mass of object , l=length ) uniform density formula [h2]The Attempt at a Solution[/h2] i was able to calculate the X c.o.m which is = 12λ*lenght of rod BC/2 but was unable to calculate its y coordinate ?
