Question

Learning Goal Part A To be able to find the center of gravity, the center of mass, and the centroid of a composite body. An object is made from a uniform piece of sheet metal. The object has dimensions of a : 1.35 ft ,b = 3.82 ft , and c = 2.45 ft. A hole with diameter d = 0700 ft is centered at (1.12, 0.675). Find 2,y, the coordinates of the body's centroid (Figure 1) Express your answers numerically in feet to three significant figures separated by a comma. A centroid is an object's geometric center. For an object of uniform composition, its centroid is also its center of mass. Often the centroid of a complex composite body is found by first, cutting the body into regular shaped segments, and then by calculating the weighted average of the segments' centroids.
