Question

What is center of gyration?

Answer 1

Center of gyration

1. When studying the axis of a spinning body, the center of gyration can be viewed as a point at which the body's moment of inertia would remain unaltered if the entire mass of the body were concentrated.
2. The radius of gyration is defined as the distance between this point and the axis.
3. The point in a rotating body where the entire mass can be concentrated without changing the body's resistance to angular acceleration or retardation.
