The center of gravity is the point at which your gravity attracts others, and others are attracted to you. This makes it your point of balance since balance is relative to the center of gravity of the object you're balancing upon. A bike for example, has it's center of gravity at it's exact middle, and you have your center of gravity at your exact middle, and as long as you can keep all of them directly on top of each other as you ride, you'll stay upright.

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.
Does the center of gravity always lies on the body?
No. For example, a ring has a center of gravity in the center of the ring, not on any part of the ring.
Does the center of gravity of a solid body always lie within the body?
No, the center of gravity of a solid body may not always lie within the body. It depends on the distribution of mass within the body. If the mass is distributed symmetrically, then the center of gravity will be located within the body. However, if the mass distribution is asymmetrical, the center of gravity may lie outside of the body.
Where is the center of gravity in the five positions of the feet in ballet?
In ballet, he center of gravity should always be in the middle of your body, no matter what you are doing.
Does the center of gravity always have to be located withing an object?
No. The center of gravity of a wedding ring is in the space at the center of the ring. The center of gravity of the letter ' V ' is somewhere along the vertical line between the two slanted lines.
Is the center of gravity of a meterstick always located at the 50-cm mark?
No, the center of gravity of a meterstick is not always located at the 50-cm mark. The center of gravity of an object is the point where its weight is considered to act. For a uniform meterstick, the center of gravity will indeed be at the 50-cm mark because of its uniform density distribution, but if the density distribution is not uniform, the center of gravity could be located at a different point.
What is the direction of the force of gravity?
The force of gravity acts towards the center of mass of the object in question.
What statement about Gravity is always true?
Objects will always be pulled to the center of the mass.
Does the centre of gravity always lie inside the body?
No. The classic counterexample is the torus (ring-shape); the center of gravity is in the geometric center of the ring, which is NOT part of the ring.
Does the center of gravity always lie on the body?
The center of gravity always lies within an object, and is the location at which the entire mass can be considered acting at a single point.For a system of more than one object, the center of gravity can lie anywhere between the farthest points of the objects, depending on the distribution of mass. The center of mass is called the barycenter.
Does gravity always act in the center of earth?
No, the gravity between Jupiter and its moons acts towards the centre of Jupiter.
Do the center of the gravity always coincide with the geometrical center of the object?
Only if the object is homogeneous, i.e. the mass is uniformly distributed. If the object is lumpy, or has thick spots and thin spots, then the center of gravity isn't related to the geometric shape. Consider a see-saw with a light kid on one end and a heavy kid on the other end. The geometric center is the mid-point of the board, but the center of gravity is closer to the heavy kid.
