Can an object have more than one center of gravity?
No, objects cannot have more than one center of gravity. The center of gravity of an object can however change.
Does the centre of gravity change on moon?
As compared to Earth, you mean? If an object doesn't change its shape, the center of mass doesn't depend on gravity - and the center of gravity hardly does so.
Does gravity change as we move away from the earth?
No. Gravity always behaves according to the same formula, introduced by Newton.But the gravitational forces between you and the Earth certainly change when thedistance between you and the Earth's center changes significantly.
What does alcohol do to your center of gravity?
Drinking alcohol doesn't change a person's center of gravity but drinking too much can reduce a person's equilibrium.
Does the mass of an object change as the distance from the center of gravity change?
No, because mass is the amount of matter contained in a body. So whatever may be the distance from the center of gravity it always remains the same.
Does the center of mass of an object ever differ from the center of gravity?
The center of mass and center of gravity serve two separate purposes. As an individual, your center of gravity and center of mass remains the same. The earth has a center of mass. The moon has a center of mass. The moon does not orbit the earth. They orbit their center of gravity. Their center if gravity is always changing. It is not a fixed point. When an airplane takes off, its center of gravity is one place. As it burns fuel, its center of gravity changes. It might be necessary to change its attitude, which today is done automatically by computers. The computers are checked at the end of the flight by human beings.
Will the center of gravity on a crane change when the boom angle changes?
It depends on which reference frame you want to use. According to the reference frame connected to the crane, it will not change. According to the reference frame associated with the ground the center of gravity will of course change.
Why does your weight appear to change evrn though you never left earths gravity?
I am not entirely sure what you are after, but your weight will change depending on the distance from Earth's center. The force of gravity depends on distance.
How does the centre of gravity change as the size of the object changes?
The location of an object's center of gravity depends on the object's shape, and on how its mass is distributed throughout its shape, but not on its size. The center of gravity of a homogeneous sphere is at the center of the sphere, no matter whether the sphere's radius is 1 millimeter or 1 light year.
How unstable ship can be made stable?
change the center of gravity (or mass) [balast - keel - move cargo]
How does gravity change if you double the distance from the center of mass?
It's an inverse squared law. So gravity is (1/2)^2 1/4 of the first value
Could a black hole at the center of the Milky Way change gravity on Earth?
No. The black hole at the center of the galaxy is too far away to affect earth.
