(a) Translate each point mass in Exercise 3 to the right four units and determine the resulting center of mass.
(b) Translate each point mass in Exercise 4 to the left two units and determine the resulting center of mass.


Data from in Exercise 3-4

In Exercises find the center of mass of the point masses lying on the x-axis.

m = 1, m = 1, m = 3, m3 = 2,

m4 = 9, M5 = 5 x = 6, x = 10,

m = 1, m = 1, m = 3, m3 = 2, m4 = 9, M5 = 5 x = 6, x = 10, x3 = 3, x4 = 2, x = 4 X3 X5
