What is the difference between the centre of mass and centre of gravity ?
Asked by Sonali Ratha | 5th 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.
