 Moments and Center of Mass
 Question: Given a thin plate with arbitrary shape,
           where is the center of mass?
Discrete case:



        m1                 m2


             d1       d2




                  =
Discrete case:

               ( ,   ), ( ,   ), ( ,   ).

The moment of the system

                          =       +         +
                                                         m1
                          =        +        +

The center of mass is
                                                     o
   (¯, ¯ ) =     ,                          m2
