Two solid hemispheres of radii R and R2 with centers O and O respectively as shown in figure. The density of bigger hemisphere is ρ and that of smaller hemisphere is 2ρ . Taking center of bigger hemisphere is at origin and the distance between centers of two hemispheres OO is R10 find co-ordinates of center of mass of the system.

  1. -R50,21R80
  2. -R30,21R80
  3. -R50,7R16
  4. -R30,7R16

Solution

Let, M2=MM1=4M

xcm=4MO-MR104M+M xcm=-R50

ycm=4M3R8-MR164M+M ycm=21R80
