The postion of the center of mass of a person is decided

Reference no: EM13667575

The postion of the center of mass of a person is decided by weighing the person as he lies on a board of negligible weight supported by two scales as shown in the figure. If the person’s height is 188cm and the left scale reads 445N and the right scale reads 400N, where is the center of gravity relative to his feet?
