-
as long as they give you ten masses,
-
or a countable number of masses,
-
we've just got to plug it in here;
-
it's a very trivial exercise.
-
Things become more interesting
-
if I give you not a set of discrete masses but discrete locations,
-
namely, a countable set of masses,
-
but I give you a rod like this.
-
This is a rod of mass M and length L,
-
and I say,
-
"Where is the center of mass?"
-
So, we have to adapt the definition that we have for this problem.
