Dear Student,

From the question It is given that

OA =OB = 1m

m1 = m2 = m3 = 1kg

Coordinates of O = (0,0)

Coordinates of A = (1,0)

Coordinates of B = (0,1)
Xcom is given as:

Then x_cm = (m1x1+m2x2+m3x3)/(m1+m2+m3)

= 0+1+0/3

= 1/3
YCOM is given as:

Then y_cm = (m1y1+m2y2+m3y3)/(m1+m2+m3)

= (0 + 0+1)/3

= 1/3

Cheers!!

Three identical balls are placed on a frictionless horizontal surface touching each other. They stick to each other because of adhesive. Another ball of same radius and mass m is placed over the void created by the three balls. Find the forces applied by the balls kept on the floor to each other if the system remains in equilibrium.
