An irregularly shaped object 10 m long is placed with each end on two nearby scales. If the scale on the right reads 94 N and the scale on the left reads 60 N , how far from the lef is the object's center of gravity? (1/se acceleration due to gravity, \( \mathrm{g}= \) \( \left.9.8 \mathrm{~ms}^{-2}\right) \)
A \( 5 . 8 \mathrm{m} \)
B 6.3 m
C 7.7 m
D 8.1 m
Solution
