What is the difference between the centre of mass and centre of gravity ?
Asked by Sonali Ratha | 05 Oct, 2013, 08:50: PM
Expert Answer

The center of mass is a geometrical measurement not considering the weight distribution.

The center of gravity is one location on a particular mass structure where the distribution of weight is the same no matter the direction of the measurement as it pertains to that one particular mass structure.

A Uniform Disc of diameter R/2 is put over another uniform disc of radius R of same thickness and Density. The peripheries of the two discs touch each other. The Centre of Mass of the system from centre of the big disc is? (I asked this question before but the answer was wrong. They took the Radius as R/2 while it is the Diameter)
