Questions
A metallic sheet, in the form of a square ABCD, has non-uniform distribution of mass. Two forces 10 N and 20 N are applied on the sheet as shown in figure. It is observed that the sheet makes only translational motion. Then distance of centre of mass from the corner A may be
detailed solution
Correct option is B
Since the sheet does not make any rotational motion, lines of action of 10 N and 20 N forces must pass through the centre of mass G of the sheet as shown in the figure. ∴ AG=32+42cm=5 cmTalk to our academic expert!
