The centre of gravity does not, by itself, determine whether an object is at rest or in motion. The location of the centre of gravity, relative to where the object is supported, can contribute one of many forces that can act on the object. And it is is the [vector] sum of these forces which determines whether the object remains at rest or in uniform motion.

Is the center of gravity located in the center of objects made of like material?
Only objects that have the exact size, shape, mass and density distribution can have the same center of mass. Any variation and the center of gravity would move. Furthermore, only objects that are geometrically symmetrical (think sphere) can have a center of gravity at their geometric center.
Can an object have more than one center of gravity?
No, objects cannot have more than one center of gravity. The center of gravity of an object can however change.
What is A force attracts objects towards he center of the earth?
that is gravity
What is gravity's effect on motion?
Gravity pulls objects together and towards the center of the earth. The force of gravity depends on the mass of the objects and the distance between them. Gravity will speed up objects falling towards the earth and slow down rising objects.
What force pulls an objects toward the center of the earth?
gravity

No, objects cannot have more than one center of gravity. The center of gravity of an object can however change.
What does the pull of gravity do to an object?
Gravity pulls objects towards the center of the Earth.
What is A force attracts objects towards he center of the earth?

Why do objects fall towards the center of the earth?
Gravity
Were does gravity pull you?
Toward the center of mass of the object or objects attracting you. Gravity also pulls it/them toward the center of mass of you.
What is gravity's effect on motion?
Gravity pulls objects together and towards the center of the earth. The force of gravity depends on the mass of the objects and the distance between them. Gravity will speed up objects falling towards the earth and slow down rising objects.
Where can the concept of the center of gravity be used?
Acceleration of rotating objects
What force pulls an objects toward the center of the earth?
gravity
What affects an objects gravity?
The object's mass, and how far you are from its center of mass.
