Figure 2 shows a uniform lamina \(A B C D E\) such that \(A B D E\) is a rectangle, \(B C = C D , A B = 8 a\) and \(A E = 6 a\). The point \(X\) is the mid-point of \(B D\) and \(X C = 4 a\). The centre of mass of the lamina is at \(G\).
- Show that \(G X = \frac { 44 } { 15 } a\).
(6)
The mass of the lamina is \(M\). A particle of mass \(\lambda M\) is attached to the lamina at \(C\). The lamina is suspended from \(B\) and hangs freely under gravity with \(A B\) horizontal. - Find the value of \(\lambda\).
