Chapter 09, Problem 001
A 3.16 kg particle has the xy coordinates (-1.63 m, 0.195 m), and a 2.01 kg particle has the xy coordinates (0.379 m, -0.126 m). Both lie on a horizontal plane. At what (a) x and (b) y coordinates must you place a 3.90 kg particle such that the center of mass of the three-particle system has the coordinates (-0.994 m, -0.732 m)?
Use the definition of center of mass to find the required
position of the third particle as shown below***********************************************************************************************
