Q. A semi-circular disc has a variable mass distribution varying as s=(s0)sinx where (s0) is the areal mass density(initial) and x is the angle with the radius. If the radius of the dic is R. FInd its Center of mass.

Dear student,

due to symmetry x coordinate is 0

r of C.M = int{r*dm}/M

            = int{r*s0sinx*r^2dx}/M (x varies from 0 to 9)

r is same as y since x coordinate is 0
