The 'y' coordinate of the center of mass of the system of three rods of length '2a' and two rods of length 'a' as shown in the figure is: 

(Assume all rods to be of uniform density)

a
9a83
b
9a163
c
zero
d
8a3

detailed solution

Correct option is B

The y-coordinate of center of mass isycm=m1y1+m2y2+m3y3+m4y4+m5y5m1+m2+m3+m4+m5=2m32a+2m(0)+2m(0)+m34a+m34a8m=9a163
