Question: What are Concentric Circles ?

Answer:

Concentric circles are circles with the same center, like the ripples caused when a stone is dropped in a pond. Concentric objects share the same center, axis or origin with one inside the other.

Circles, tubes, cylindrical shafts, disks, and spheres may be concentric. Concentric objects do not necessarily have the same radius.
