Lecture Description

Calculus: We present formulas for the moments and center of mass of a planar lamina of uniform density rho. Examples considered are (a) a rectangle of height h and base b, (b) the upper half of the unit disk, and (c) the region between y=x and y=x^2-x from x=0 to x=1. For part (c), we also show how to obtain the center of mass by splitting the region in two pieces.
