Center of gravity of an aircraft - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The center-of-gravity (CG) is the point at which an aircraft would balance if it were possible to suspend it at that point. It is the mass center of the aircraft, or the theoretical point at which t...

TEACHER SECTION: POSSIBLE HYPOTHESIS: Based on the research, I think the center of gravity will be somewhere below the point where the cork and the forks will balance. POSSIBLE CONCLUSION: An object will balance when the center of gravity is below the point where it pivots.
