The correct option is C 2 m
Step 1: Draw a rough diagram of non-uniform rod.
Given: l=3 m,λ∝x
Let the origin be at left end
Assume a small element dm at distance x from left end,
Step 2: Find centre of mass of rod.
Formula used: xcm=∫xdm∫dm
Mass per unit length, i.e., linear mass density
λ∝xλ=λ0x, λ0 is costant
dm=λdx=λoxdx
xcm=∫xdm∫dm=∫30xλ0xdx∫30λ0xdx
xcm=∫x2dx∫xdx=(x33)30(x22)30=2 m
