The video tutorial explains how to find the mass, moments about the x and y axes, and the center of mass of a lamina bounded by specific lines. It begins by defining the density function and setting up the double integral for mass calculation. The tutorial then details the integration process, including determining limits and simplifying expressions. Finally, it calculates the moments about the axes and uses these to find the center of mass, providing a comprehensive understanding of the mathematical process involved.
