Question:

Three uniform metersticks, each of mass m, are placed on the floor as follows: stick 1 lies along the y axis from y = 0 to y = 1.0 m, stick 2 lies along the x axis from x = 0 to x = 1.0 m, stick 3 lies along the x axis from x = 1.0 m to x = 2.0 m.

(a) Find the location of the center of mass of the metersticks.

(b) How would the location of the center of mass be affected if the mass of the metersticks were doubled?
