| The distance between a carbon atom (m = 12 u) and an oxygen atom (m = 16 u) in the CO molecule is 1.13 x 10^-10 m. How far from the carbon atom is the center of mass of the molecule? | ??? |
| An empty 1050-kg car has its CM 2.50 m behind the front of the car. How far from the front of the car will the CM be when two people sit in the front seat 2.80 m from the front of the car, and three people sit in the back seat 3.90 m from the front? Assume that each person has a mass of 70.0 kg. | ??? |
| A square uniform raft, 18 m by 18 m, of mass 6200 kg, is used as a ferryboat. If three cars, each of mass 1200 kg, occupy the NE, SE, and SW corners, determine the CM of the loaded ferryboat. | ??? |
