centrobaric, a.|sɛntrəʊˈbærɪk|
[f. centro- + Gr. βάρ-ος weight + -ic.]
1. Of or relating to the centre of gravity, or to the process of finding it.
centrobaric method (Math.): a method of determining the area of a surface, or the volume of a solid, generated by the revolution of a line or surface respectively about a fixed axis, on the principle that the superficies or solid so formed is equal to the product of the generating line or surface and the length of the path of its centre of gravity; sometimes called the theorem of Pappus.

1867Thomson & Tait Nat. Philos. (1883) §534 If the action of..gravity on a rigid body is reducible to a single force in a line passing always through one point fixed relatively to the body..that point is called its centre of gravity, and the body is called a centrobaric body. 1885Watson & Burbury Math. The. Electr. & Magn. I. 64 A body which has the same potential at all points outside of itself, as if its mass were collected at a point O within it, is a centrobaric body, and O its centre. It follows..that if a body be centrobaric, its centre is its centre of inertia.
