List of centroids
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to navigationJump to search
The following is a list of centroids of various two-dimensional objects. The centroid of an
object in -dimensional space is the intersection of all hyperplanes that divide into
two parts of equal moment about the hyperplane. Informally, it is the "average" of all points of .
For an object of uniform composition (mass, density, etc.) the centroid of a body is also its center of
mass. In the case of two-dimensional objects shown below, the hyperplanes are simply lines.
