How Centre of Gravity?

The center of gravity of an object is calculated by taking the sum of its moments divided by the overall weight of the object. The moment is the product of the weight and its location as measured from a set point called the origin.

How do you find the center of gravity?

Your center of gravity is the balance point in your body. It's the point at which your upper and lower body weight is balanced. Typically, this is just below the belly button and half way between the lower back and belly when a woman is standing upright.

How does center of gravity work?

Since the weight of an object is concentrated in its centre of gravity, the force of gravity passes through this point in a vertical line towards the Earth. An object hanging from any point will automatically rotate so that its centre of gravity is along this vertical line from the hanging point.
