Hi. "Concentric" means having a common center. A bull's eye is a good example.

The word "concentric" loosely means "having the same center", so concentric circles are circles with the same center but with different radii. If you've ever looked at a dart board, you've seen concentric circles. The rings of Saturn are a series of concentric circles.

Concentric circles are circles of different sizes that share the same center. A bullseye is a good example. CD's also have them.

Concentric circles are simply circles within circles. Two examples are tree rings and ripples propagating outward from the spot where a stone is dropped into water.

More better...a dart board has concentric circles, all centering on the bulls eye.

I see two outer circles that require unnecessary and unfruitful ontological commitments, using Quine's "To be is to be the value of a bound variable."

all the are are circles evenly palced around a axis at larger and larger diamiters an exsample would be a stone throw in a pond and the ripples it makes
