Show that if the masses and centers of masses of and are and and respectively, then the center of mass of is where
In Exercises 57–60, let R be the rectangular solid defined by
R = {(x, y, z) | 0 ≤ x ≤ 4, 0 ≤ y ≤ 3, 0 ≤ z ≤ 2}.
Assume that the density of R is uniform throughout, and find the moment of inertia about the x-axis and the radius of gyration about the x-axis.
Find the masses of the solids described in Exercises 53–56.
The solid bounded above by the hyperboloid with equation and bounded below by the square with vertices (2, 2, −4), (2, −2, −4), (−2, −2, −4), and (−2, 2, −4) if the density at each point is proportional to the distance of the point from the plane with equationz = −4.
Discuss the similarities and differences between the definition of the double integral found in Section and the definition of the triple integral found in this section.
Explain why using an iterated integral to evaluate a double integral is often easier than using the definition of the double integral to evaluate the integral.
