A rod of length 2.85 meters is hanging from the ceiling using two strings at each end. The rod is horizontal and the tension force on one of strings is 2.14 times the tension on the other one. Deternine the distance of the center of mass of the rod from the string with higher tension. Enter numerical value of the length in unit of meters.
