Physics · System of Particles and Rotational Motion
A uniform square plate lies in the first quadrant of the x-y plane with one corner at the origin. If a small piece Q is removed from the corner furthest from the origin (Quadrant I) and glued exactly at the center of the plate, the new center of mass of the modified plate will shift into which direction relative to the original center?
