CENTRE OF MASS
CENTRE OF MASS
. We could see a large number of objects around us.
. Objects around us consists of large number of particles.
. When an object moves collection of all particles as a system
moves.
. To understand the concept of centre of mass we must know.
1) What is a rigid body.
2) What is a point mass
3) What path does the particles in a body take, while
the body moves
A rigid body is the one which maintain its definite and
fixed shape even when an external force acts on it
A point mass is a hypothetical point particle which has
nonzero mass and no size or shape.
Let us consider a solid cylinder hollow
cylinder and a sphere moving

When a bulk object (say a bat) is thrown at an
angle in air
Actually, only one point takes the parabolic path and all the other
points take different paths. ----- CENTRE OF MASS
The center of mass of a body is defined as a point where the
entire mass of the body appears to be concentrated.
.. . ..
Let m1, m2, m3 . . . mn be point masses of n particles.
Let, x1, x2, x3 . . . xn be the position of the respective particles
along X-coordinate.
Centre of mass for distributed point
masses
The center of mass for y and z coordinates
Let us consider two point masses m1 and m2, which are at
positions x1 and x2 respectively on the X-axis.
