Identify the quantities determined by the integral expressions in Exercises 19–24. If x, y, and z are all measured in centimeters and ρ(x, y,z) is a density function in grams per cubic centimeter on the three-dimensional region , give the units of the expression.
Let f(x, y, z) and g(x, y, z) be integrable functions on the rectangular solid . . Use the definition of the triple integral to prove that :
Let be a lamina in the xy-plane. Suppose is composed of two non-overlapping lamin and , as follows:
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}.
Assuming that the density at each point in R is proportional to the distance of the point from the xy-plane, find the moment of inertia about the x-axis and the radius of gyration about the x-axis.
