Figure 5
Summary: Find tne Centroid (and more)
Figure 5 shows a trapezoid with dimensions in millimeters:
(a) Could one find the centroid of this object by integration?
Yes or no? (no justification required)
(b) Could one fine the area moment of inertia about the x-axis
by integration?
Yes or no? (no justification required)
(c) Would this shape make a good "I-beam"? I.e. would it
provide good bending resistance about centroidal axis?
Briefly say why or why not?
(d) Treat the shaded area as a positive rectangular area and
negative triangular area and use the Composite Body
Method to find X, the location of the centroid in the x-
direction. You do NOT need to find Y
