answer to this problem
DUDE I have the same problem! WTF!
Anyways. Center of Mass, or X bar is found many ways. The way I use is da best.
Center of mass is described as total moment divided by total mass. So to find total moment, take the integral of moment (moment being mass times displacement) and that gives you total moment. now divide by total mass (In this case, mass is described as the integral of the function.)
Since you are rotating this around the X axis, center of mass for y doesn't matter. It's symetrical. X will be less than 0.5, if i recall correctly. I don't wanna give the answer away though. lol
Cool!
