Answer:
- centroid: (x, y) = (81.25 mm, 137.5 mm)
- I = 8719.31 mm^2 for unit mass
Explanation:
Finding the desired measures requires we know a differential of area. That, in turn, requires we have a way to describe a differential of area. Here, we choose to use a vertical slice, which requires we know the area boundaries as a function of x.
The upper boundary is a line with a slope of 125/156.25 = 0.8, and a y-intercept of 125. That is, ...
y1 = 0.8x +125
The lower boundary is given in terms of y, but we can solve for y to find ...
100x = y^2
y2 = 10√x
Then our differential of area is ...
dA = (y1 -y2)dx

The centroid is found by computing the first moment about the x- and y-axes, and dividing those values by the area of the figure.
The area will be ...
The y-coordinate of the centroid is ...
Similarly, the x-coordinate is ...
That is, centroid coordinates are (x, y) = (81.25, 137.5) mm.

The moment of inertia is the second moment of the area. If we normalize by the "mass" (area), then the integral looks a lot like the one for , but multiplies dA by x^2 instead of x.
The attachment shows that value to be ...
I ≈ 8719.31 mm^2 (normalized by area)
The area is 16276.0416667 mm^2, if you want to "un-normalize" the moment of inertia.
