Objects with a uniform mass distribution and a symmetric shape have a center of mass at the center of the object. For non-uniform objects, the center of mass needs to be determined experimentally. To measure the center of mass of such an object, a pivot is placed in the middle of a board and the top of the non-uniform object is placed to the right of the pivot. When a uniform 10.0 kg mass has its center placed 60.0 cm to the left of the pivot the system balances perfectly (as shown below). The mass of the non-uniform object is measured with an electronic scale in the lab and found to beM = 39.8 kg . Top of non-uniform object 10.0 kg M 60.0 cm Part A Where is the center of mass of the non-uniform object? (report the location from the top of the object, and in cm) ΑΣΦ ? dCM = ст
