4) Find the center of mass of a uniform right square pyramid of mass M height H and side length S with its flat square surface placed on the ground. Center of mass should be measured from the ground. You should also state where the two horizontal centers of mass would be, but vertical is the fun one.

Two blocks of masses M and 3M are on a horizontal and frictionless surface. A massless spring with a spring constant of 96 N / m is attached to one of the blocks. The spring is compressed between the blocks and the blocks are tied with a massless rope as shown in the figure. After the rope holding the masses is cut, the 3M block moves to the right at 2 m / s. In this case, after the rope is cut a) What is the velocity of the block of mass M. b) If M = 0.5 kg, how much was the spring compressed before the rope was cut
