Gravitational Center

The gravitational center, also known as the center of gravity, is the point within an object where the entire weight can be considered to act. In a symmetrical object, like a sphere, this point is at its geometric center. For irregular shapes, it depends on how mass is distributed. This point helps us understand how the object will balance or fall; for example, when you tilt an object, it swings around its gravitational center. Essentially, it’s the average location of all the mass in the object from a gravitational perspective.
