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,




The center of mass is given by:




Now we are given 


The attached image shows the region bounded by the functions,


Now let's find...

Now let's find the area of the region,









Now let's evaluate the moments about the x- and y-axes,

















The coordinates of the center of the mass are given by,



Plug in the values of  









The coordinates of the center of mass are
