Center of Mass by Integration (Rigid Objects with Shape)
How to find the center of mass of rigid objects with shape using an integral is shown. The center of mass of a right triangle is derived and demonstrated. Want Lecture Notes and/or Animated GIFs? http://www.flippingphysics.com/center... This is an AP Physics C: Mechanics topic.
