Get started for freeFind the moment of inertia about a diagonal of a framework consisting of the four sides of a square of side a.
In Problems 17 to 30, for the curve , betweenand, find:
The moments of inertia about the x axis of a lamina in the shape of the plane area under the curve;
(a) Revolve the curve , from , about the x axis to create a surface and a volume. Write integrals for the surface area and the volume. Find the volume, and show that the surface area is infinite. Hint: The surface area integral is not easy to evaluate, but you can easily show that it is greater than which you can evaluate.
(b) The following question is a challenge to your ability to fit together your mathematical calculations and physical facts: In (a) you found a finite volume and an infinite area. Suppose you fill the finite volume with a finite amount of paint and then pour off the excess leaving what sticks to the surface. Apparently, you have painted an infinite area with a finite amount of paint! What is wrong? (Compare Problem 15.31c of Chapter 1.)
For the solid bounded above by the sphere and below by a horizontal plane through (0, 0, 1), find
(a) the volume (see Problem 6 and Problem 3.12);
(b) the z coordinate of the centroid (use cylindrical coordinates).
Express the integral as an integral in polar coordinates and so evaluate it.
