Mass is uniformly distributed about its center of mass.
Center of mass has no advantages. It just kind of is.
Since gravity is produced by mass, the center of mass is also the center of gravity. The only difference between these two concepts is that mass is a more basic quantity, so the center of mass would also be the center of inertia, as well as the center of gravity. In practice, these terms can be used interchangeably.
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.
This is called either the center of gravity or the center of mass.
A child's center of mass is slightly higher than an adult's due to their relatively larger head size and shorter limbs compared to their torso. This distribution makes the center of mass shift higher up in the body compared to adults where it is typically located lower in the pelvic region.
The center of mass of a sphere is its geometric center.
The center of mass of a soccer ball is its geometric center.
Mass is uniformly distributed about its center of mass.
The simplest answer is to add the mass at the center of mass. In that case, the total mass will increase, but not the center of mass. If the additional mass is not added at the center of mass, then it must be balanced with more mass at a location on the object that depends upon the object's shape. That's where things get complicated.
The geometric center and the center of mass of the Earth are essentially the same point.
the center mass of an object is in the center of such objects. you can find it by spining the object. :)

Center of mass of an equilateral triangle is located at its geometric center (centroid).

The distance from the center of mass to Earth, times the mass of the Earth, must be equal to the distance of the center of mass to the Moon, times the mass of the Moon. (For more than 2 objects, the calculation is somewhat more complicated - reading about "center of mass" can give you an idea.)The distance from the center of mass to Earth, times the mass of the Earth, must be equal to the distance of the center of mass to the Moon, times the mass of the Moon.

The heavier mass will be nearest to the center of mass. The concept behind this is related to the one that explains the center of gravity. The center of mass and the center of gravity are the same.
