List of centroids
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The following is a list of centroids of various two-dimensional and three-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, or in other words, has the same density at all points, 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.
