Nine spheres, each with a mass of 3.2 kg, are distributed evenly along a semicircle of radius r = 2.8 meters, as shown in the diagram above. The diameter of each sphere is much smaller than the radius of the semicircle. For purposes of a coordinate system, the center of the semicircle is at the origin of our coordinate system, and the entire semicircle is in the first and second quadrants (x coordinates range from -r to r meters, while y coordinates range from 0 to r meters. Find the location of the y coordinate (in meters) of the center of mass of the nine spheres.
