Problem

A thin wire forms a quarter-circle of radius 44 cm in the first quadrant, centered at the origin. At an angle θ\theta (in radians) from the positive xx-axis, its linear mass density is λ(θ)=3+2θ\lambda(\theta)=3+2\theta grams per centimeter along the wire. Determine the mass of the wire, expressed in grams.
