The ease with which an object can be balanced depends greatly on the location of its center of gravity. In this video segment adapted from ZOOM, two cast members experiment with various designs in an effort to balance a pencil on its tip. Their solution lowers the pencil's center of gravity, making this seemingly difficult balancing feat all but effortless.
The force that causes the pencil to fall is gravitational force. This force pulls objects towards the center of the Earth.
Center of gravity is primarily used in airplane dialog but you have it around you all the time. It is the point of balance in an object when no other force affects it. A couple of examples: a teeter totter is balanced when objects at both ends equal the same weight. If you are on one end and another person is on the other you will notice the heavier person causes the teeter totter to rotate down on the heavy end. If the heavier person moves more to the center the balance is eventually equalized and you have achieved center of gravity. Two...If you balance a standard pencil on your finger the point where the pencil actually balances is the pencils center of gravity. Hope this helps
The force required to lift a pencil off a desk is the gravitational force acting on the pencil. When you lift the pencil, you are exerting an upward force that overcomes the force of gravity pulling the pencil downward.
Gravity pulls the pencil downward towards the desk, creating a force that helps keep it balanced when not being moved by an external force. Other factors, such as the friction between the desk and the pencil, also play a role in keeping it stable.
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.

if you drop a pencil you just saw gravity in action. This happens because Earth has a bigger gravity force than the pencil, so instead of the Earth moving to the pencil, the pencil moves to the Earth!

Yes, the Moon's gravity is much stronger than that of a pencil. The Moon's gravity is what causes tides on Earth and keeps it in orbit around the Earth, while a pencil's gravity is too weak to have any noticeable effect.
The magnetic core of the earth pulls on the mass of the pencil.
Yes. Everything with mass has gravity. However, a pencil has such a small mass that its gravity is not noticeable.
it is noticable in case of pencil & rubber.by what point ur takling?
The center of gravity of the truck
ummmmm.......... gravity????
