Hello students, in this question we have to find if the following statements are true or false.
00:06
So the first one, the torque due to gravity can be calculated by considering the object's weight as acting at the center of gravity.
00:13
This is a true statement.
00:16
This is a true statement because the torque due to gravity is a product of the object's weight and the distance from the center of gravity to the pivot point.
00:26
Now coming to the next one, that is, the center of gravity coincides with the geometric center of the object.
00:34
So this statement is not always true.
00:37
Therefore, we can write it as false.
00:40
That is, for objects with uniformly density and symmetric shape, the center of gravity does coincide with the geometric center...
