Concept explainers

Center of Gravity of a system

The centre of gravity is a property that is based on the geometry of a rigid body or any particle. It is described as an equilibrium point or a hypothetical location where the total weight of the body is concentrated.

Question

A uniform 1200 N beam that is 3.50 m long is suspended horizontally by two vertical wires at its
