It explains how to find the moments about an axis and the center of mass for planar objects and systems with variable density. The section covers the formulas and applications, providing examples that illustrate the concepts of mass distribution in physical systems.

The basic idea of the center of mass is the notion of a balancing point. Many of us have seen performers who spin plates on the ends of sticks. The performers try to keep several of them spinning without allowing any of them to drop. Mathematically, that sweet spot is called the center of mass of the plate.

A brief recap of these uses will be useful in this section as we apply iterated integrals to compute the mass and center of mass of planar regions. This section has shown us another use for iterated integrals beyond finding area or signed volume under the curve. While there are many uses for iterated integrals, we give one more application in the following section: computing surface area.
