The center of gravity is the theoretical point where all the body weight is concentrated or the theoretical point about which the body weight is evenly distributed. If a body is of uniform density and has a symmetrical shape the center of gravity is in the geometric center. If the object is not symmetrical and does not have uniform density, it is more difficult to describe the location of its center of gravity.
For a uniform symmetric body in all directions the center of mass and center of gravity are the same point. Comment: I would say this happens when the force of gravity is the same at all points on a body. That means there are no variations in the gravitational field.
The centre of the cross-section, halfway along the length of the rod.
Yes . If the center of pressure, for the vehicle as a whole, is not located behind the center of gravity (away from the direction of the flight path), then the vehicle will have unstable motion and can tumble. Adding fins to the rear of the vehicle (or increasing fin surface area) will move the center of pressure aft, affording stable flight. A similar effect can be produced by adding weight to the front of the vehicle.
Assuming a uniform gravitational field, center of mass and center of gravity are the same. The basic idea of center of gravity is it's the place where you apply a force to move it in a straight line without causing the body to rotate or move in other direction. So for a sphere, a cube, or any other symmetrical body, its at the geometric center, assuming the solid is of uniform density. See the Wikipedia link below for a more thorough treatment of the subject.
If the cube is uniform ( ie it has uniform density) then the geometric center of the cube is its center of gravity.

The center of gravity of a triangle can be found by adjusting the thickness. You also need to find the density at the intersection.
2 apex fill-in-the-blank Q's: 1) The center of gravity of a trianglular solid with uniform thickness and density is at the intersection of the medians of the triangle. 2) The center of gravity of a triangular solid with uniform thickness and density is the centroid. medians the point at which one can balance the triangle. and the point shared by a triangle's medians. medians centroid Medians i got centriod?
The centre of the cross-section, halfway along the length of the rod.
the centroid the point at which one can balance the triangle
As the intensity of pressure increases with depth so for an inclined surface CP is bellow CG. Center of gravity : a point from which the weight of a body or system may be considered to act. In uniform gravity it is the same as the center of mass.
