Center of gravity is usually located where

1. less mass is concentrated
2. less weight is concentrated
3. more mass is concentrated
4. more weight is concentrated

Correct answer: more mass is concentrated

Solution

The center of gravity is the point through which the resultant weight of a body acts, and for a uniform gravitational field it aligns with the center of mass. In a body with uneven distribution, it is usually found where more mass is concentrated.
