$A$ uniform square plate of side $a$ has a square hole of side $a/2$ cut out of it as shown in the figure. The hole is centered at $(a/4, a/4)$ from the center of the plate. The center of mass of the remaining part is:

  • A
    $(a/12, a/12)$
  • B
    $(a/6, a/6)$
  • C
    $(a/10, a/10)$
  • D
    $(a/8, a/8)$

From a uniform circular disc of radius $2 \,cm$ (its centre of mass is at $O$), a circular portion of radius $1 \,cm$ is removed such that the shift in centre of mass is maximum. The disc is now rotated by an angle $\theta$ about an axis perpendicular to its plane and passing through $O$. If the magnitude of displacement of the new centre of mass is $\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \,cm$, then the $\theta$ is (in $^{\circ}$)
