In Exercises 57 and 58, use the Second Theorem of Pappus, which is stated as follows. If a segment of a plane curve C is revolved about an axis that does not intersect the curve (except possibly at its endpoints), the area S of the resulting surface of revolution is given by the product of the length of C times the distance d traveled by the centroid of C.

A sphere is formed by revolving the graph of \(y=\sqrt{r^{2}-x^{2}}\) about the axis. Use the formula for surface area, S = 4𝜋r2, to find the centroid of the semicircle \(y=\sqrt{r^{2}-x^{2}}\).
