Transcribed Image Text:A composite solid consists of a rectangular block of lightweight concrete and a
triangular wedge of steel with dimensions as shown. The rectangular block has a
2 ft radius circular hole drilled through its full depth, perpendicular to the front
and back faces.
Assume densities yc = 125 lb/ft³, and ys = 493 lb/ft³.
Note carefully the coordinate system shown. Using this coordinate system
determine the location of the Z-centroid and enter your answer in units of ft.
