In your own words describe first moment of area for any shape and its importance. With reference to the shape below about the axis s – s, describe the position of the centroid.
Look at the central transparent area of someone’s eye, the pupil, in normal room light. Estimate the diameter of the pupil. Now turn off the lights and darken the room. After a few minutes turn on the lights and promptly estimate the diameter of the pupil. What happens to the pupil as the eye adjusts to the room light? Explain your observations.

- 1. Over the entrance to a restaurant is mounted a strip of equally spaced light bulbs, as shown in the figure at the side. Starting at the left end, each bulb turns on in sequence for one-half second. Thus, a lighted bulb appears to move from left to right. After the last bulb on the right turns on, the apparent motion reverses. The lighted bulb then appears to move to the left, as part b of the drawing indicates. As a result, the lighted bulb appears to oscillate back and forth. Is the apparent motion simple harmonic motion? Explain.
