The position vectors of three particles of masses $1\, kg, 2\, kg$,and $3\, kg$ are $\vec{r_1} = (\hat{i} + 4\hat{j} + \hat{k})\,m$,$\vec{r_2} = (\hat{i} + \hat{j} + \hat{k})\,m$,and $\vec{r_3} = (2\hat{i} - \hat{j} - 2\hat{k})\,m$ respectively. The position vector of their centre of mass is:

The figure below shows a shampoo bottle in a perfect cylindrical shape. In a simple experiment,the stability of the bottle filled with different amounts of shampoo volume is observed. The bottle is tilted from one side and then released. Let the angle $\theta$ depict the critical angular displacement resulting in the bottle losing its stability and tipping over. Choose the graph that correctly depicts the fraction $f$ of shampoo filled ($f=1$ corresponds to completely filled) versus the tipping angle $\theta$.

Three identical spheres of mass $1 \ kg$ each are arranged as shown in the figure. The centers of the spheres,which are touching each other,lie on a straight line. If their centers are denoted by $P, Q,$ and $R$,what is the distance of the center of mass of the system from $P$?
