You measure the dimensions of the club-ax as shown in the figure: the stick is 98 cm long, and the 18 cm long stone is drilled through its center and mounted on the stick. How far is the center of mass of the club-ax from the handle end of the club-ax? shone MW, =3.2k, my = 74 bg L,=©.8 + -1B)am l= O.\Bm From hawdlle € CM otek mot OM clone Bob ab’ ‘= Vo xo ZZ M= ware ™ tM %2 _ Kegs MEME = O77 Kem 7L5 ethProblem 5 Brak. up theodjech Find the center of mass of the uniform sheet of plywood in the figure Lm below. Consider this as a system of effectively two sheets, letting one ne have a "negative mass’ to account for the cutout. Thus, one is a square sheet of 3.0-m edge length and mass m and the second is a rectangular sheet measuring 1.0 m x 2.0 m with a mass of -m2.
