Length and Length related Variables

Length can de defined as the measurement or extent of physical quantities or objects from one terminal to another terminal. Stone age humans used finger length, step length, and so on to measure the size or displacement of an object. Nowadays, depending on how precise the measurement requires to be and the object’s size is measured, we use measuring devices for measurements like rulers and steel tape. Most people have used a ruler or tape measure to measure a particular distance or the size of an object. For more precise measurements of tiny objects, the development of measurement tools such as the Vernier caliper, which permits us to measure dimensions within 1/1000 of an inch. In the last few decades, electronic distance measuring instruments (EDMI) have been implemented that permit us to measure distances from a few feet to many miles with reasonable accuracy.

Question

**Title: Determining the Centroid of an Area through Direct Integration**

**Problem Statement**
Determine the centroid of the area shown by direct integration.

**Diagram Explanation**
A shaded region is depicted under two curves on a standard Cartesian plane. The x-axis and y-axis intersect at the origin. The area is bounded by:

- The line \( y_1 = mx \), which represents a straight line starting from the origin.
- The curve \( y_2 = kx^{1/2} \), which is a parabolic curve opening to the right.
- The vertical line at \( x = a \), marking the right boundary of the region.
- The horizontal line at \( y = b \), marking the top boundary.

Dimensions involved are marked:
- The horizontal distance from the origin to the vertical boundary is labeled \( a \).
- The vertical distance from the x-axis to the horizontal boundary is labeled \( b \).

**Centroid Calculation**
The centroid coordinates \((\bar{x}, \bar{y})\) are represented as:

\[
\bar{x} = \left( \frac{\text{[Expression for }\bar{x]\text{]}} \right) \, \text{a}.
\]

\[
\bar{y} = \left( \frac{\text{[Expression for }\bar{y]\text{]}} \right) \, \text{b}.
\]

To solve, integrate over the specified area using methods appropriate for the geometry of the region defined by the curves.
