In a uniform gravitational field, the centre of gravity is identical to the:

ACentre of mass
BCentre of motion
CCentre of moment
DCentre of contact
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Centre of mass
1. Both points describe an average position. 2. With uniform gravity they coincide. 3. So it equals the centre of mass. _Source: OpenStax University Physics Volume 1, Chapter 12, Static Equilibrium and Elasticity._
