Difference Between Center Of Gravity and Centroid

 Six Differences Between Center Of Gravity and Centroid

S.NO.	Center Of Gravity	Centroid
1.	The center of gravity (COG) of an object is the point at which the object's weight is balanced.	The centroid of an object is the point at which the object's area is balanced.
2.	The center of gravity (COG) of an object is the point at which the object's weight is balanced.	The centroid of an object is the point at which the object's area is balanced.
3.	The COG of an object is the point where the object's weight can be considered to be concentrated.	The centroid of an object is the point where the object's area can be considered to be concentrated
4.	The COG of an object is determined by the distribution of mass within the object.	The centroid of an object is determined by the distribution of area within the object.
5.	The COG of an object is important in determining the object's stability and the forces acting on it.	The centroid of an object is important in determining the object's structural properties and the stresses acting on it
6.	The COG of an object is typically represented by a single point.	The centroid of an object is typically represented by a single point for 2D objects and by a line for 3D objects.
