Find the center of mass of a circular plate, the density of whichvaries as the distance from a point on the circumference. 3. Find the center of mass of a cylinder, the density of which varieswith the nth power of the distance from one base. 4. Find the center of mass of a quadranl of an ellipsoid. 5. Find the center of mass of a hemisphere, the density of which variesas the distance from the center. 119. Center of Mass of a Number of Bodies.
