Question
Determine the center of gravity of the plate of uniform thickness t = 0.1m which
has a circular cavity of radius 0.15m (see the figure below). The rectangular plate is
made of steel and its density is 77kN/m³. The semicircle plate is made of copper
and its density is 87.3kN/m³.
0.3 m
0.3 m
0.3 m
t = 0.1 m
Steel
0.15 m
0.6 m
Copper
0.3 m
The center of gravity is located at x = 0.376m and y = 0m
The center of gravity is located at x = 0.976m and y = 0m
The center of gravity is located at x = 0.614m and y = 0m
The center of gravity is located at x = 0.876m and y = 0m
