Radially: meaning, definitions and examples
๐
radially
[ หreษชdiษli ]
direction, geometry
Radially refers to something that occurs or is arranged in a pattern that extends outward from a central point, resembling the spokes of a wheel. This term is often used in mathematics, physics, and engineering to describe movements, forces, or distributions that spread from a center.
Synonyms
centrally, concentrically, outwardly
Examples of usage
- The flowers grew radially around the center of the garden.
- The forces acted radially from the center of the circle.
- He arranged the chairs radially for the discussion.

Etymology
The term 'radially' originates from the Latin word 'radius', which means 'ray' or 'spoke of a wheel'. It was first adopted into English in the early 19th century, during a time when geometry and physics were becoming increasingly formalized. In geometric contexts, 'radial' describes relationships and patterns that extend outward from a point, emphasizing the relation to a central source. As disciplines such as engineering and design evolved, the application of the term 'radially' expanded to include discussions of distributions, forces, and arrangements in both practical and theoretical frameworks. Over time, the term has found usage in various fields, including biology to describe the growth patterns of certain organisms, as well as in technology, particularly in the context of radial engines and mechanical systems.
