Transcribed Image Text:Problem 1: Three glasses are placed by a waiter on a light-weight tray. The first glass
has a mass of M = 575 g and is located R = 17 cm from the center of the tray at an
angle 01 = 45 degrees above the positive x-axis. The second glass has a mass of M2 =
325 g and is located R2 = 22 cm from the center of the tray at an angle 02 = 45 degrees
below the positive x-axis. The third glass has a mass of M3 = 225 g and is located R3 =
17 cm from the center of the tray at an angle 03 = 45 degrees above the negative x-axis.
A fourth glass of mass M4 = 875 g is to be placed on the tray so that the center of mass
is located at the center of the tray.
