A circular plate of uniform thickness has a diameter of 56 cm. A circular portion of diameter 42 cm. is removed from +ve x edge of the plate. Find the position of centre of mass of the remaining portion with respect to centre of mass of whole plate.'
Let mass per unit area of Plote = m Mass of whole Plote = M = $ \pi \left( { 56 \over 2} \right) ^2 m $ Mass of removed part = $M_1 = \pi \left( { 42 \over 2} \right) ^2 m $ Mass of remaining Portion $ M_2 = M – M_1 $ C.M of whole disc R = O at origin C.M of removed Plote = $r_1$ = 28 – 21 = 7cm C.M of remaining Portion $r_2$ = ? $M \times O = M_ir_i + M_2r_2 $
