A rigid body can be hinged about any point on the $x$ -axis. When it is hinged such that the hinge is at $x$, the moment of inertia is given by $I = 2x^2 - 12x + 27$ The $x$ -coordinate of centre of mass is
$x = 2$
$x = 0$
$x = 1$
$x = 3$
Consider the following statements
Assertion $(A)$ : $A$ cyclist always bends inwards while negotiating a curve
Reason $(R)$ : By bending he lowers his centre of gravity Of these statements,
The centre of mass of system of particles does not depend on
Three particles of masses $50\, g$, $100\, g$ and $150\, g$ are placed at the vertices of an equilateral triangle of side $1\, m$ (as shown in the figure). The $(x, y)$ coordinates of the centre of mass will be
There are some passengers inside $a$ stationary railway compartment. The track is frictionless. The centre of mass of the compartment itself (without the passengers) is $C_1$, while the centre of mass of the 'compartment plus passengers' system is $C_2$. If the passengers move about inside the compartment along the track.
Locate the centre of mass of arrangement shown in figure. The three rods are identical in mass and length
