**Problem 2:**

A thin, homogeneous wire is bent in the form shown. Locate the y-coordinate of the center of gravity of the wire.

*Note: The form of the wire is not shown in the text. Please refer to the accompanying image or diagram to view the shape of the wire.*
Transcribed Image Text:**Problem 2:** A thin, homogeneous wire is bent in the form shown. Locate the y-coordinate of the center of gravity of the wire. *Note: The form of the wire is not shown in the text. Please refer to the accompanying image or diagram to view the shape of the wire.*
The image displays a three-dimensional geometric diagram on a grid background. It represents a structure with a triangular form extended in 3D space.

**Description of the Diagram:**

- **Axes:** The diagram is drawn in a 3-dimensional coordinate system with the axes labeled \(x\), \(y\), and \(z\).
- **Points:**
  - **Point A** is positioned on the positive \(y\)-axis.
  - **Point O** serves as the origin, located at the intersection of the \(x\)-, \(y\)-, and \(z\)-axes.
  - **Point B** is situated along the \(z\)-axis, 1 meter from the origin.
  - **Point D** is on the \(x\)-axis at a distance of 0.6 meters from the origin.
- **Lines:**
  - A line segment connects \(O\) to \(A\), running vertically along the \(y\)-axis.
  - A diagonal line links \(A\) to \(D\), passing through space to connect these two points.
  - Another line runs from \(O\) to \(B\) along the \(z\)-axis.
  - A final line segment closes the loop from \(B\) to \(D\).
- **Measurements:**
  - The vertical height from \(O\) to \(A\) is marked as 2 meters along the \(y\)-axis.
  - The distance from the origin \(O\) to \(B\) is 1 meter along the \(z\)-axis.
  - The horizontal distance from \(O\) to \(D\) is 0.6 meters along the \(x\)-axis.

This diagram is useful for visualizing relationships between points and distances in three-dimensional space, often applicable in physics, engineering, and mathematics.
