Which of the following points is the likely position of the center of mass of the system shown in the figure?
1. \(A\)
2. \(B\)
3. \(C\)
4. \(D\)
Hint: The center of mass depends on the mass distribution.
The Centre of the mass of a system lies towards the part of the system. having a bigger mass. In the above diagram, the lower part is heavier, hence CM of the system lies below the horizontal diameter.
