(ii) using the theorem of Pappus:
Volume generated when shaded area is
revolved aboutOY=(area)( 2 πx).
i.e. 81 π=( 18 )( 2 πx),
from which, x=
81 π
36 π
=2.25
Volume generated when shaded area is
revolved aboutOX=(area)( 2 πy).
i.e. 194. 4 π=( 18 )( 2 πy),
from which, y=
194. 4 π
36 π
=5.4
Hence the centroid of the shaded area in
Fig. 38.12 is at (2.25, 5.4).
Problem 10. A metal disc has a radius of 5.0cm
and is of thickness 2.0cm. A semicircular groove of
diameter 2.0cm is machined centrally around the
rim to form a pulley. Determine, using Pappus’
theorem, the volume and mass of metal removed
and the volume and mass of the pulley if the density
of the metal is 8000kgm−^3.
A side view of the rim of the disc is shown in Fig. 38.13.
