Homework Statement
Consider the planar quadrilateral with vertices (0, 0), (2, 0), (1, 1) and (0, 1). Suppose that it has constant density. What is its center of mass?
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
Since it has constant density, could I assume that the center of mass would be the same as if I put 4 equal masses on the vertices and calculate the center of mass that way? Like ##\bar x= \frac {m_1x_1+...+m_nx_n}{m_1+...m_n}## and same for ##\bar y##?
Thanks!
