To keep the calculations fairly simple, but still reasonable, we shall model a human leg that is 92.0 cm long (measured from the hip joint) by assuming that the upper leg and the lower leg (which includes the foot) have equal lengths and that each of them is uniform. For a 70.0 kg person, the mass of the upper leg is 8.60 kg, while that of the lower leg (including the foot) is 5.25 kg. Find the location of the center of mass of this leg, relative to the hip joint, if it is (a) fully extended, and (b) bent at the knee to form a right angle with the upper leg.
The following figure shows two particles of masses m1 and m2, with velocities before the collision of magnitude v1 and v2. If the collision is perfectly elastic, find the magnitude of the velocities v1' and v2' after the collision and the angle of incidence θ (theta), as a function of the masses and velocities before the collision.

Determine a) The coordinates of the center of mass of the system b) The coordinates in which a fourth particle of mass 2m must be placed so that the center of mass of the new system moves to the origin of coordinates.
Three point masses ( 2 kg. 2 kg. 6 kg) shown in the figure are initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal floor. When the mass at the origin is subjected to a constant force F, it is observed that the center of mass (CM) of the three-mass system reaches point P with coordinates (4 m, 4 m) in 2 sec. Find the acceleration of the center of mass in unit vector notation. (Hint: after finding center of mass location, need to use kinematics) 2kg Y (m) 1X 4 2kg 4 メ (m)
