M2 Revision Sheet

Centre of mass of a set of masses will always lie on axis of symmetry. For a triangular lamina, c.o.m. Lies 3 2 distance from vertex to mid-point of opposite side. In a suspended lamina hanging in equilibrium, the centre of mass will be vertically below the point of suspension.

Centre of Mass
Centre of mass is the point at
which the weight acts.
Centre of mass will always lie
on axis of symmetry.

In a suspended lamina hanging

When on an inclined plane, the
line of action of the weight
must fall within the base of the
object, else it will topple.
