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

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 for the bounded region.


Let's first evaluate...

Refer to the attached image for the bounded region.


Let's first evaluate the area of the region,







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




Take the constant out and simplify,

















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








The center of the mass is
