2. For each elementary part, calculate the centre of gravity as indicated below.
i
In the formulas shown below, the following symbols are used:
G : centre of gravity
X : absolute position of the centre of gravity
b : relative position of the centre of gravity;
V : volume;
m : mass;
d : density (in the absence of data supplied by the toolmaker, use the following general
densities: Iron: 7850kg/m
3
; Aluminium: 2100kg/m

).
