tesian coordinates the mass of an infinitesimalcube is taken as the ele-ment of mass: dm = t • dxdy dz. (b) When the boundingsurfaces of the body aregiven in spherical coordi-nates the element of massis chosen as shown in Fig.80. In this case the fol-lowing is the expression forthe element of… … 148 ANALYTICAL MECHANICS ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLES. 1. Find the center of mass of an octant of a homogeneous sphere,(a) Suppose the bounding surfaces to be x2 + if + z*- = a-, x = 0, y = 0, and z = 0.Then the limits of integration are x = 0 and x = a. Therefore y = 0 and y = Vo* — x1,z = 0 and z = y/a-…
