The distance of centre of mass from end A of a one dimensional rod (AB) having mass density $$\rho=\rho_{0}\left(1-\frac{x^{2}}{L^{2}}\right) \mathrm{kg} / \mathrm{m}$$ and length L (in meter) is $$\frac{3 L}{\alpha} \mathrm{m}$$. The value of $$\alpha$$ is ___________. (where x is the distance from end A)
Three identical spheres each of mass M are placed at the corners of a right angled triangle with mutually perpendicular sides equal to 3 m each. Taking point of intersection of mutually perpendicular sides as origin, the magnitude of position vector of centre of mass of the system will be $$\sqrt x$$ m. The value of x is ____________.
