Answer:
0.975 m
Explanation:
The center of mass y = ∑m₁y₁/∑m₁ where m₁ = the individual masses and y₁ = the y - coordinates of the individual masses
So,
y = (2.02 kg × 3.03 m + 2.92 kg × 2.43 m + 2.53 kg × 0 m + 4.02 kg × -0.501 m)/(2.02 kg + 2.92 kg + 2.53 kg + 4.02 kg)
y = (6.1206 kgm + 7.0956 kgm + 0 kgm - 2.01402 kgm)/11.49 kg
y = 11.20218 kgm/11.49 kg
y = 0.975 m
So, the y- component of the center of mass of these objects is 0.975 m
