(choose chapter or problem)

In the following exercises, consider a lamina occupying the region R and having the density function \(\rho\) given in the preceding group of exercises. Use a computer algebra system (CAS) to answer the following questions.

a. Find the moments \(M_{x}\) and \(M_{y}\) about the x-axis and y-axis, respectively.

b. Calculate and plot the center of mass of the lamina.

c. [T] Use a CAS to locate the center of mass on the graph of R.

[T] R is the rectangular region with vertices (0, 0), (0, 3), (6, 3), and (6, 0); \(\rho(x, y)=\sqrt{x y}\)
