The centre of gyration isthatpoint in which, if all the mattercontained in a revolving systemwere collected, the same angularvelocity will be generated in thesame time by a given forceacting at any place as wouldbe generated by the same forceacting similarly in the body orsystem itself. The distance of the centreof gyration from the point ofsuspension, or axis of motion,is a mean proportional betweenthe distances of the centres ofoscillation and gravity, from thesame point or axis. If S, , be the point of suspen-sion of any regular or irregularbody P S ; G the place of thecentre of gravity ; O that ofthe centre of oscillation ; and Rthat of the centre of gyration ;then R S = V SO x SG;hence, S O x S G =r a constantquantity for the same body andthe same plane of vibrationS Q T. If S G = 25, and S O= 36 units of length, thenS E = V25 X 36 = 30. Ira Gays Conical-Plate Plani
