Homework Statement
From an inertial reference frame S, the vector position of a particle of mass
m1 = 1kg is given by r1(t)=(txhat - t^2yhat)m.
The vector position of a particle m2=2m1 is given by r2=(t)=(txhat +t^3yhat)m
Assume t=1second
Find the position, the velocity and the acceleration of the center of mass of the composite system: xCM vCM a CM
Homework Equations
m1 x1(1) + m2 x2(1) / m1 + m2
The Attempt at a Solution
3xkg/ 3kg = 3x-direction
velocity = x
acceleration = 0
I do not think this is right, could some one help?
