Center of Mass and Centroid Problems
🕑 Added 2023-01-03 13:07:23 +0000 UTCThis calculus video tutorial provides a basic introduction into the center of mass of a system also known as the centroid. It explains how to find the x and y coordinates of the centroid of a planar lamina which is a 2d region. The center of mass occurs where an object or a region can be balanced by a pencil if gravity is the only force acting on it. This video contains plenty of examples and practice problems.

On the final problem around exactly 40 minutes, I believe that you had missed the 1/2 from the ybar equation, so the final answer should result in 12/5 not 24/5.
