Three masses are placed on the x-axis: \(300\) g at the origin, \(500\) g at \(x =40\) cm, and \(400\) g at \(x=70\) cm. The distance of the center of mass from the origin is:
1. | \(40\) cm | 2. | \(45\) cm |
3. | \(50\) cm | 4. | \(30\) cm |

The mass per unit length of a non-uniform rod of length \(L\) is given by \(\mu =λx^{2}\) where \(\lambda\) is a constant and \(x\) is the distance from one end of the rod. The distance between the centre of mass of the rod and this end is:
1. | \(\frac{L}{2}\) | 2. | \(\frac{L}{4}\) |
3. | \(\frac{3L}{4}\) | 4. | \(\frac{L}{3}\) |
