center of gravity
Isaac Kremer/ January 28, 2022/ / 0 comments
The point at which the entire weight of a body may be considered concentrated so that, if supported at this point, the body would remain in equilibrium in any position: coincident with the center of mass in a uniform gravitational field. A force whose line of action passes through the center of gravity of a body affects not only its translation equilibrium; the body remains in rotational equilibrium. (Ching, 1995)
