1.0 MOMENTS OF AREA
Or
1.1.1 Locating the centroid of a solid material
a. If an area is symmetric about an axis, the
centroid must lie on that axis because the first
moment about an axis of symmetry equals zero.
b. If an area has two axes of symmetry, the position
of the centroid can be determined by intersection
of the axes of symmetry.

A parabolic semisegment OAB is bounded by the x
axis, the y-axis, and a parabolic curve having its
vertex at A (figure E1.1c). The equation of the curve
is

A semicircular area of radius 150 mm has a
rectangular cutout of dimensions 50 mm * 100 mm
(see figure E1.4b). Calculate the moments of inertia Ix
and Iy with respect to the x and y axes. Also, calculate
the corresponding radii of gyration rx and ry
1.5 Polar moment of Inertia
Consider an axis perpendicular
to the plane area in figure 1.8
and intersecting the plane at
the origin O.
The moment of inertia with respect to this
perpendicular axis is called the polar moment of
inertia denoted by Ip and
Therefore,
1.7 Parallel axis theorem for moment of inertia
Consider an area of arbitrary
shape with centroid C
(figure 1.9). We will also
consider two sets of coordinate
axes: (1) the xcyc axes with origin
at centroid, and (2) a set of
parallel xy axes with origin at any point O. The
distances between the two sets of parallel axes are
denoted by d1 and d2.
We can write the equation for the moment of inertia
Ix with respect to the x-axis:
This reduces to
