The following table gives the density (in units of \(\mathrm{g} / \mathrm{cm}^{2}\) ) at selected points of a thin semicircular plate of radius 3. Estimate the mass of the plate and explain your method. $$\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline & \boldsymbol{\theta}=\mathbf{0} & \boldsymbol{\theta}=\boldsymbol{\pi} / \boldsymbol{4} & \boldsymbol{\theta}=\boldsymbol{\pi} / \boldsymbol{2} & \boldsymbol{\theta}=\boldsymbol{3} \pi / \boldsymbol{4} & \boldsymbol{\theta}=\boldsymbol{\pi} \\ \hline \boldsymbol{r}=\mathbf{1} & 2.0 & 2.1 & 2.2 & 2.3 & 2.4 \\ \hline \boldsymbol{r}=\mathbf{2} & 2.5 & 2.7 & 2.9 & 3.1 & 3.3 \\ \hline \boldsymbol{r}=\mathbf{3} & 3.2 & 3.4 & 3.5 & 3.6 & 3.7 \\ \hline \end{array}$$
For what values of \(p\) does the integral \(\iint_{R} \frac{d A}{\left(x^{2}+y^{2}\right)^{p}}\) exist in the following cases? a. \(R=\\{(r, \theta): 1 \leq r < \infty, 0 \leq \theta \leq 2 \pi\\}\) b. \(R=\\{(r, \theta): 0 \leq r \leq 1,0 \leq \theta \leq 2 \pi\\}\)
Use spherical coordinates to find the volume of the following solids. The solid inside the cone \(z=\left(x^{2}+y^{2}\right)^{1 / 2}\) that lies between the planes \(z=1\) and \(z=2\)
Use polar coordinates to find the centroid of the following constant-density plane regions. The quarter-circular disk \(R=\\{(r, \theta): 0 \leq r \leq 2,0 \leq \theta \leq \pi / 2\\}\)
Miscellaneous volumes Choose the best coordinate system for finding the volume of the following solids. Surfaces are specified using the coordinates that give the simplest description, but the simplest integration may be with respect to different variables. The solid inside the sphere \(\rho=1\) and below the cone \(\varphi=\pi / 4\) for \(z \geq 0\)
