Should the triangle have thickness, then from the centre of area (centroid)

go into the material (normal to the surface) to half its thickness, this point is the centre of gravity.

What force does the weight of a body represent?

The weight of a body represents the force exerted by gravity on that body. It is the downward force acting on an object due to gravity pulling it towards the center of the Earth.

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.


What letter is used to represent the acceleration due to gravity?

The letter "g" is commonly used to represent the acceleration due to gravity. In physics, this value is typically taken to be approximately 9.81 m/s^2 on the surface of the Earth. The acceleration due to gravity is a vector quantity pointing towards the center of the Earth, and it is responsible for the weight of objects on Earth.


Is there gravity in the center of the Earth?

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?
