Centroid of T bar

The video tutorial explains how to calculate the centroid of a T bar by using its dimensions and applying specific equations. It begins with an introduction to the T bar and its dimensions, followed by a detailed explanation of the equations used to find the centroid's X and Y coordinates. The tutorial emphasizes the symmetry of the T bar and how it affects the X coordinate. The process of calculating the Y coordinate is demonstrated by dividing the T bar into two sections and applying the formula. The tutorial concludes with the final calculation of the centroid and a brief mention of future topics like the moment of inertia.

How do you determine the distances Y1 and Y2 for the two bars in the T bar?
