Abstract

The purpose of this investigation has been to determine the variations of the first, second, third and fourth moments as functions of distributions of masses and areas. These moments were found about a line or plane perpendicular to the horizontal axes of the figures, and at various distances along the axes. For a complete understanding of the problem, an explanation of various terms will be made in relation to mechanics statistics.
