Describe the significance of the radius of gyration.

Ans. The radius of gyration is signified as followed:

1. The radius gyration is less when the particles of the body are spread further from the axis of rotation.

1. The radius of gyration is greater when the particles are spread distantly from the axis of rotation.

1. When estimating the catching heap of a beam or pressure, the gyration radius is crucial.

1. It can also be used to adjust the intensity of a section’s cross-sections.
