Solution

The correct option is C 5Lo9
Let us take a small mass dm at distance L from one of the end of width dl


We know, C.O.M of continuous body,
rC.O.M=Ldmdm
=Lo0L(ρoLoL+ρo)dLLo0(ρoLoL+ρo)dL [ρ=dmdL=ρoLoL+ρo]
rC.O.M=[ρoLo×L33+ρoL22]Lo0[ρoLo×L22+ρoL]Lo0
=ρoL2o3+ρoL2o2ρoLo2+ρoLo
rC.O.M=59Lo
Centre of mass from one of the end is 5Lo9.
