### Thin-Walled Cold Rolled Steel Cross-Section Analysis

#### Description
The illustration depicts a thin-walled cold rolled steel cross-section. The thickness of all segments of this member is **0.105 inches**.

The diagram is shaped like an inverted "L," with the horizontal and vertical sections extending:

- **7 inches horizontally** on both the top and bottom sections.
- **5 inches vertically** on both the left and right sections.

The centroidal axes, denoted by **x'** and **y'**, intersect at point **C**.

#### Objective
Determine the moments of inertia of the cross-section, \( \bar{I}_{x'} \), \( \bar{I}_{y'} \), and \( \bar{J}_{C} \), in \( \text{in}^4 \) with respect to the centroidal axes \( x' \) and \( y' \). Additionally, calculate the corresponding radii of gyration in inches.

#### Input Fields
- \( \bar{I}_{x'} = \) [Input Box] in \( \text{in}^4 \)
- \( \bar{I}_{y'} = \) [Input Box] in \( \text{in}^4 \)
- \( \bar{J}_{C} = \) [Input Box] in \( \text{in}^4 \)
- \( k_{x'} = \) [Input Box] in inches
- \( k_{y'} = \) [Input Box] in inches
- \( k_{C} = \) [Input Box] in inches

This exercise involves calculating the mechanical properties relevant for structural analysis, assisting in evaluating the stiffness and stability of the section when subjected to various loads and moments.
