The area of semi-parabola that written in the form of x=k(y^2) or vertical semi-parabola area formula is given by 2*ab/3 so the total area will be 2*(2*ab/3) so 160*80/3= 8533 unit^2
we can take a piece of area dxdy then multiply by x^2 then integrate finally apply gyration formula.

Can anyone provide the simple explanation?

You are correct @Chandu.

I'm also tried in the same way, it gives the same answer as yours.

Ky=root over Iy/A
Iy=moment of inertia with respect to y-axis
A=area

dI=dA*r^2 (r is radius)

dI=0.1(1600-x^2)x^2 dx
Integrate both sides, limits are 0 to 40
And multiple with 2

we get
I=2730666
Here dA=y dx(here y=0.1(1600-x^2))
Integrate both sides, limits are 0 to 40
And multiple with 2

A=8533

Substitute the values of I, A in Ky we get

Ky=17.89mm

Hai frnds i solve it........
