Thus mass of the smaller disc=σπ(R/2)2 =M/4Centre of massxcm =∑Mixi∑Mi, ycm =∑Miyi∑MiHere xi is x coordinates of centre of massesLet's assume centre of mass coordinate for big disk is (0,0)And that if small disk in reference of big disk =(R/2,0)xcm =M×0-M4 ×R2M-M4 (Here - sign is taken because small disk is taken out)xcm =-M4 ×R2×43M =-R6ycm =M×0-M4 ×0M-M4 =0SoCoordinate of centre of mass (-R6,0) The negative sign indicates that the centre of mass gets shifted toward the left of point O So correct option is B Regards 0 View Full Answer
