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


Why must the intersection of the 3 lines be the center of GRAVITY of the irregularly shaped lamina?

Friend Hilmar Zonneveld is perfectly and absolutely right. Weight, being a vector, of an object will always act through the center of gravity. Also definition of centre of gravity confirms that whatever be the position the weight would always act through a point known to be center of gravity

Is it impossible that the location of the center of gravity is in a point where there is no mass?

The center of gravity is an average of the location of the points of gravity. If you had a flying ring like a Frisbee but without the center, the center of the gravity would be in the hole.

Is center of gravity lies where there is no mass?

That all depends on the shape of the object and how its mass is distributed. The center of gravity of a solid sphere is at the center of the solid sphere. The center of gravity of a solid cube is at the center of the solid cube. The Earth's center of gravity is at the center of the Earth, and there's certainly plenty of mass there. But the center of gravity of a ring is at the center of the ring ... an open space where the finger goes.
