Thanks for asking the question!
ANSWER::
Centre of mass of the plate will be on symmetrical axis.
Centre of mass at y
= [(πR₂²/2)(4R₂/3π) - (πR₁²/2)(4R₁/3π)] / [(πR₂²/2) - (πR₁²/2)]
= [(2/3)R₂³ - (2/3)R₁³] / [π/ 2(R₂² - R₁²)]
= [4(R₂-R₁)(R₂² + R₁² + R₁R₂)] / [3π(R₂-R₁)(R₂+R₁)]
= [4(R₂² + R₁² + R₁R₂)] / [3π (R₁ + R₂)]
[4(R₂² + R₁² + R₁R₂)] / [3π (R₁ + R₂)] above the centre.
Hope it helps!

The center of mass of a uniform plate having semicircular inner and outer boundaries of radii R1 and R2 is above the center.
Explanation:
Step 1:
The plate's center of mass is on the symmetrical axis.
Symmetrical axis is nothing but a line through a circle to form a mirror image on each side. The Two-half matches when the shape on the symmetry axis is folded in half .
Step 2:
Centre of mass at y is given by
above the center.
