$A$ rod of length $L$ has non-uniform linear mass density given by $\rho(x)=a+b\left(\frac{x}{L}\right)^{2}$,where $a$ and $b$ are constants and $0 \leq x \leq L$. The value of $x$ for the centre of mass of the rod is at

Two uniform plates of the same thickness and area but of different materials,one shaped like an isosceles triangle and the other shaped like a rectangle,are joined together to form a composite body as shown in the figure. If the centre of mass of the composite body is located at the mid-point of their common side,then the ratio between the masses of the triangle to that of the rectangle is:
