Applications of Integrals

A. Consider the region described. Provide a sketch of the graph of each region.
Then, set-up the definite integral that will give the area of the region. Use both
vertical and horizontal elements. (7 points each)
1. bounded by x y 2 , x y 2 and the y-axis
2. bounded by y x3 2 x and y x

B. Find the center of mass of the point masses lying on the x-axis with the
following data:
m1 12, m2 1, m3 6, m4 3, m5 11 and x1 6, x2 4, x3 2, x4 0, x5 8 . Illustrate in
the real number line. (4 points)
C. Find the centroid of the 5-cm rod whose linear density at a point x cm from one
end is 3x 2 g/cm. (5 points)
D. Solve for the coordinates of the centroid of the region bounded by x y 2 , x y 2
and the x axis. See Figure 1. (5 points)
E. Consider the region bounded by y 2 x 2 and y x . See Figure 2. Generate a
solid of revolution by revolving the region about the indicated line. Then, Set-up
the definite integral to determine its volume. Use both slicing and shell method.
(2 points each)
1. x 3
3. y 3
2. x 2
4. y 2
F. Set-up the definite integral that will solve for the centroid of the solids of
revolution generated in D1 and D3. (3 points each)
