In the figure, a nonuniform bar is suspended at rest in a horizontal position by two massless cords as shown in the figure here. One co makes the angle 0 = 34.4° with the vertical; the other makes the angle p = 55.6° with the vertical. If the length L of the bar is 3.4 m, compute the distance x from the left end of the bar to its center of mass.
