Four point masses with respective masses 1 kg, 1 kg, 2 kg, 2 kg form the corners of a square of side (P and Q adjacent with mass 1 kg each, R and S adjacent with mass 2 kg each). The centre of mass of the system will be farthest from

Answer: (D)

Solution

The system's centre of mass is pulled toward the heavier masses R and S (2 kg each), so it lies closer to the R–S side and
