Find the x and y moments of inertia and center of mass for the laminas of uniform density bounded by the graphs of the...

For an irregularly shaped planar lamina of uniform density , bounded by graphs and , the mass of this region is given by:



 , where A is the area of the region.


The moments about the x- and y-axes are given by:




The center of mass is given by:


 



We are given:

For an irregularly shaped planar lamina of uniform density , bounded by graphs and , the mass of this region is given by:



 , where A is the area of the region.


The moments about the x- and y-axes are given by:




The center of mass is given by:


 



We are given:


Refer to the attached image, Plot of is blue in color. The curves intersect at and .


First let's find the area of the bounded region,


 






Now let's evaluate the moments about the x- and y-axes using the formulas stated above:




















Now let's find the coordinates of the center of mass,










The center of mass is
