Find the mass and center of mass of the triangular lamina with vertices (0,0), (0,2) and (1,0), if its density at any point is d(x,y)=x .
Solution
mass = }} x dx dy center of mass x = ( }} x^2 dx dy ) / mass center of mass y = ( }} xy dx dy ) / mass The hardest part of double/triple integrals is setting them up. The equation for one line is x = 0 and the other is y = -3x +3. I think this should work for the region: { 0 to 1 { 0 to -3x+3 _dy dx
