Problem 51E

Theory and Applications

Medians of a triangle Suppose that A, B, and C are the corner points of the thin triangular plate of constant density shown here.

a . Find the vector from C to the midpoint M of side AB.

b. Find the vector from C to the point that lies two-thirds of the way from C to M on the median CM.

c. Find the coordinates of the point in which the medians of  intersect. According to Exercise 17, Section 6.6, this point is the plate’s center of mass.
