Center of Gravity is the average location of an object's weight. For symmetrical objects it is the same location as the geometric center. Example, a dumbell with equal spherical masses at each end is symmetric about lines drawn thru its center, so the geometric center is midway between the end masses. This is also the center of gravity because the average location of the weights (same amount to the left as to the right) is at the geometric center. For working force problems an object's weight is always a force to be considered. When drawing force vectors the object's weight can be considered as located at its center of gravity. The center of gravity of an object can be found experimentally by finding points where it can be balanced. Draw an imaginary line vertically up, thru the object, from the balance point. Then rotate the object 90 deg and find another balance point and draw a second ,imaginary, vertical line. Then rotate the object 90 deg in a different direction and find a third vertical line. The point ,inside the object, where the lines cross, is its center of gravity. You need three lines for a three dimensional object so you get the balance point in all three spatial directions.

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 there gravity in the center of the Earth?
Yes, there is gravity in the center of the Earth. The force of gravity is present throughout the entire Earth, including its center.
How do you give a seminar on center of gravity?
important points about center of gravity
What is center of gravity or mass?
the center of gravity is your step mom's BFF
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.

Is it impossible that the location of the center of gravity is in a point where there is no mass?
It is not possible for the center of gravity to be at a point where there is no mass, as it is a weighted average that considers the distribution of mass within a body. If there is no mass at a point, it cannot contribute to the calculation of the center of gravity.
Where does the center of gravity of the atmosphere of the earth lies?
Since the atmosphere is more or less symmetric, its center of mass (center of gravity) gravity must be quite close to Earth's center.
Where is the center of gravity of a basketball?
If you were observing the ball from the outside (of the ball) the center of gravity is in the middle of the basketball.
What can be said about the force of earths gravity pulling on the books?
Earths gravity acts on everything from its center of gravity to everything else's center of gravity.
Where is the center of gravity of basketbal?
In the center.
