Uniform object - geometrical centre. Gravitational field strength, g, is the same everywhere for the body. Centre of Mass = Centre of gravity Centre of Mass Centre of gravity Object is so large that the gravitational field strength may not be the same everywhere over the body. 1 m

Force d d Lever d is always at right angles to the line of action of the force Torque Pivot Point Torque = F x d
