The position vector of the center of massr→cmof an asymmetric uniform bar of negligible area of cross-section as shown in figure is:

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

The position vector of center of mass r→cm is given as 

r→cm=Xcmx^+Ycm y^

Where, Xcm=x-coordinate of center of mass  and Ycm=y-coordinate of center of mass

r→cm=m1x1+m2x2+m3x3m1+m2+m3 x^ +m1y1+m2y2+m3y3m1+m2+m3 y^

r→cm=2m×L+m×2L+m5L22m+m+mx^+2m×L+m×L2+m×02m+m+my^

r→cm=13L8x^+5L8y^
