How does weight affect center of gravity?

Weight directly impacts the position of an object's center of gravity. The center of gravity is the point where the weight of an object can be considered to act. As an object's weight increases, the center of gravity shifts towards the heavier end of the object.


What is central of gravity?

The center of gravity is the point where the entire weight of an object can be considered to act. It is the point at which an object is in perfect balance and will remain stable if supported at that point. The center of gravity is important in understanding the stability and equilibrium of physical objects.


When a person sits What is supporting the weight?

When a person sits, their weight is primarily supported by the chair or surface they are sitting on. The chair provides a reaction force equal and opposite to the force of gravity acting on the person, thus supporting their weight. Additionally, some weight is also supported by the person's muscles and joints to maintain balance and posture while sitting.


When you are at rest and supported by a pair of weighing scales how does the sum of the scale readings compare with you weight?

How much is gravity pushing down?

The force of gravity pulling objects towards Earth's center is approximately 9.81 meters per second squared. This force is what gives objects weight and causes them to fall towards the ground when they are not supported.
