Question
Consider the schematic of the molecule shown, with two hydrogen atoms, H, bonded to an oxygen atom, O. The angle
between the two bonds is 106°. If the bond length r = 0.101 nm long, locate the center of mass of the molecule. The mass
m of the hydrogen atom is 1.008 u, and the mass mo of the oxygen atom is 15.9999 u. (Use a coordinate system centered
in the oxygen atom, with the x-axis to the right and the y-axis upward. Give the coordinates of the center of mass in nm.)
