Yes.  Consider the toroid.  (A doughnut)  The center of mass is in the center of the hole in the middle.

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.


Can centre of mass of a body can exist at point where there is no mass of the object?

Yes. For example, the center of mass of a hollow sphere would be at the empty center of that sphere.


What is center of gravity of a body?

The center of gravity is the theoretical point where all the body weight is concentrated or the theoretical point about which the body weight is evenly distributed. If a body is of uniform density and has a symmetrical shape the center of gravity is in the geometric center. If the object is not symmetrical and does not have uniform density, it is more difficult to describe the location of its center of gravity.


What is the center of gravity of the body?

The human body is bilatertally symmetrical because the left and right halves of the body mirror each other, as you can see in the image to the left.as such the centre of mass of the human body should lie in its geometrical centre of the bodyIn most people the center of mass is around the belt buckle andabout 4" in. A Japanese martial arts instructor could be used to show you where the "hara" is. This approximately the same location.


Center of gravity of body?

The center of gravity of a body is the point at which the body's weight is considered to act. It is the point around which the body's mass is equally distributed in all directions, resulting in balanced forces. The center of gravity may or may not coincide with the geometric center of an object, depending on its shape and distribution of mass.

How center of mass can not lie with in the body?

The simplest answer is to look at it this way. Take a circular piece of steel (not a flat disk but a rod formed into a circle). The center of mass will be in the center of the circle, which is not within the body of the steel.


What organ within our body would you consider to be the center that controls the body and helps us to carry out activities?

That would be the Brain


What could happen if there were no red blood cells in your body?

The body wouldn`t exist because the body needs blood to survive.


Is the center of gravity is always in the body?

For a single body, the center of gravity (center of mass) must be within the object. It is the single point at which all of an object's mass can be considered to act. For multiple bodies in a system, the center of mass can fall within a body or anywhere between bodies. The joint center of mass is called the "barycenter."

What is the control center?

The control center is a central hub where various processes are monitored and managed. It could refer to a physical location or a software system used to regulate and coordinate activities within an organization or system.

Why god put your heart in the center of the your body?

Evolution put it in the center so that blood could reach all parts of the body with pretty much the same pressure. Also a protection from damage.
