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

First lets find the bounds of integration. When looking at the graph the furthest that the lamina is bounded on the y-axis is where the curves interest. Lets find those points.




Therefore the y bounds are y=-1 and y=2. Then we will integrate between the furthest right curve (x=y) and the furthest left curve.


The center of Mass is:



Where the moments of mass are defined as:




The total mass is defined as:



First, lets find the total mass.






Now lets find the x moment of mass.







Now the y moment of mass.







Therefore the center of mass is:



The moments of inerita or the second moments of the lamina are:




I won't solve these integrals step by step since they are very similar to the others, but you will find that:
