To determine the center of gravity of a uniform ball, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Definition**: The center of gravity (CG) is the point where the weight of a body is considered to act. For symmetrical objects, this point is often at the geometric center. 2. **Identify the Type of Object**: In this case, we have a uniform ball. A uniform ball means that the mass is distributed evenly throughout its volume. ...

  • Assertion: The centre of gravity of a body coincides with its centre of mass only if the gravitational field does not vary form one part of the body to the other. Reason: Centre of gravity is independent of the gravitational field.

    A
    If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
    B
    If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion
    C
    If assertion is true but reason is false.
    D
    If both assertion and reason are false.
