How do we find the center of gravity of a given aged?
You can use plumb lines to find the center of gravity of an object.
Where does an object center of gravity always lie?
It is always different depending on the object. For example a female humans' center of gravity is in the hip. as a male humans' center of gravity is in the chest. But once you have found the center of gravity in an object the center of gravity should be the same in every object like it.
Is it possible for an object not to have a center of gravity?
No, but the centre of gravity need not be inside the object. Not unless Gravity is not a variable. But it is not possible for an object to not have a center of mass.
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.
Can an object have two center of gravity?
No. The center is the center.
What is the center of gravity for a spherical object?
If the object is homogeneous, its center of mass is in its geometrical center. And if it is small compared to Earth, its center of gravity is, for all practical purposes, its center of mass.
What are the Factors effecting center of gravity?
The only factor that affects the center of gravity is how the mass of an object is distributed.
How do we find the center of gravity of a flat irregularly shaped object?
You can use plumb lines to find its center of gravity. Hold it from one point and draw vertical line in direction of gravity (plumb line). Hold it from another point and do the same, and a third point if necessary; where the lines cross is center of gravity
How do you predict whether an object will topple dealimg with the center of gravity?
The center of gravity of an object is one factor in determining the stability of the object. The lower the center of gravity, the more stable the object. Other factors must be used for the prediction such as the shape of the base and overall structure.
What is a tangible center of gravity characteristic?
One tangible characteristic is that, if an object's center of gravity, projected downward, is inside the base where the object touches the ground, the object won't fall over.Another one is that, the higher the center of gravity of an object, the easier it is to push such an object over. For example, this may be relevant for cars on a road.
What is the center of gravity of a standing object?
That depends entirely on the shape of the object.
What does the pull of gravity do to an object?
Gravity pulls objects towards the center of the Earth.
