In Fig. 12-45, a nonuniform bar is suspended at rest in a horizontal position by two massless cords as shown in the figure here. One cord makes the angle ? = 24.1° with the vertical; the other makes the angle f = 65.9° with the vertical. If the length L of the bar is 4.4 m, compute the distance x from the left end of the bar to its center of mass.
