Question

Where does the centre of gravity of the ‘merry go round' lie?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

For regular bodies centre of gravity lies at the centre of the body. Hence we know that there will be a centre for a uniform ring lamina. Hence this centre of the ring will be centre of gravity.

Answer 2

Answer:

Centre of gravity means a point from which the weight of a body or system may be considered to act. In uniform gravity it is the same as the centre of mass.For regular bodies centre of gravity lies at the centre of the body.Hence we know that there will be a centre for a uniform ring lamina.Hence this centre of the ring will be centre of gravity.
