Question:

A 2.00kg particle has the y coordinates (– 1.20 m, 0.500 m), and a 4.00kg particle has the xy coordinates (0.600 m, – 0.750 m). Both lie on a horizontal plane. At what
(a) x and
(b) y coordinates must you place a 3.00kg particle such that the center of mass of the three-particle system has the coordinates (– 0.500, – 0.700m)?
