3) The centroid of a curve can be found by a process similar to the one we used for finding the centroid of a region. If C is a curve with length L, then the centroid is (7,) where x ds L. and y = y ds C (The centroid often doesn't lie on the curve itself. If the curve were made of wire and placed on a weightless board, the centroid would be the balance point on the board.) Find the distance between the centroids of a half disc of radius r and a half circle of radius r (the perimeter of a half disc of radius r).
