Please see images attached for full problem Three 92.4 g masses are connected in a triangular shape by massless rigid wires as shown in the first image (which is not drawn to scale). The coordinates of each mass are given in centimeters. Mass A is located at (0,0), mass B is at (14.2,22.5), and mass C is at (16.3,15.4). Find the x- and y‑coordinates of the center of mass of the triangular object. xcm = ycm = Two more 92.4 g masses are connected by a straight piece of wire and affixed to the original configuration as shown. The coordinates of mass D are (0,−27.8) and the coordinates of mass E are (0,27.8). Find the x- and y‑coordinates of the new center of mass of the combined object. xcm= ycm=
