A shaft caries four rotating masses A, B, C and D which are completely balanced. The masses B, C and Dare 50kg, 80kg and 70kg respectively. The masses C and D make angles of 90° and 195° respectively with mass B in the same sense. The masses A, B, C and D are concentrated at radius 75mm,100mm,50mm and 90mmrespectively.The plane of rotation of masses B and C are 250mm apart.   Determine   the magnitude of mass A and its angular position   the position of planes A and D.

Center of Gravity and Centroid

The term center of gravity indicates the position or location of a point about which the whole weight of a body or system is supposed to be concentrated, which means the whole weight of the body or system works through this point. It is closely related to mass distribution. For all positions of the body, the center of gravity would be a single point.
