centroid of the volume obtained by rotating the shaded area about the x-axis




Quiz:

1.  Locate the centroid of the plane area (similar to problems 5.1-5.16)
2.  For a given Distributed load, find a) the magnitude and location of the resultant, b) reactions at supports.  (similar to problems 5.66-5.95)
3.)  Locate the center of gravity for a 3D object (similar to problems 5.96-5.121)
Extra Credit: Locate the centroid of a volume created by rotating an area about an axis. (similar to problems 5.125-5.129)
