Three identical spheres,each of mass $M$,are placed at the corners of a right-angled triangle with mutually perpendicular sides equal to $2 \; m$ (see figure). Taking the point of intersection of the two mutually perpendicular sides as the origin,find the position vector of the center of mass.

Two bodies of mass $1\,kg$ and $3\,kg$ have position vectors $\hat{i}+2\hat{j}+\hat{k}$ and $-3\hat{i}-2\hat{j}+\hat{k}$ respectively. The magnitude of the position vector of the centre of mass of this system will be equal to the magnitude of which of the following vectors?

Three masses are placed on the $x-$axis: $300 \, g$ at the origin,$500 \, g$ at $x = 40 \, cm$ and $400 \, g$ at $x = 70 \, cm$. The distance of the centre of mass from the origin is ....... $cm$.

The centre of mass of two thin uniform rods of the same length $L$ but made of different materials and kept as shown in the figure can be,if the meeting point is the origin of coordinates:

Two identical uniform rectangular blocks (with longest side $L$) and a solid sphere of radius $R$ are to be balanced at the edge of a heavy table such that the centre of the sphere remains at the maximum possible horizontal distance from the vertical edge of the table without toppling as indicated in the figure. If the mass of each block is $M$ and of the sphere is $M/2$,then the maximum distance $x$ that can be achieved is

What is the torque acting on the center of mass of an object due to the gravitational force?
