The iterated integral is given in polar coordinates. The density function is δ(r,θ)=k. The limits of integration are:
−2π≤θ≤2π 0≤r≤θ To sketch the region R, we note that the angle θ ranges from −2π to 2π, and for each angle θ, the radius r ranges from 0 to θ. This region is a sector of a circle where the radius varies with the angle θ. The mass M of the lamina is given by the integral:
M=∫−π/2π/2∫0θkrdrdθ First, we integrate with respect to r: ∫0θkrdr=k[21r2]0θ=21kθ2 Now, we integrate with respect to θ: M=∫−π/2π/221kθ2dθ=21k[31θ3]−π/2π/2=61k[(2π)3−(−2π)3]=61k[8π3+8π3]=61k[4π3]=24kπ3 To find the center of mass (xˉ,yˉ), we need to find the moments Mx and My.
