massakeskiö
Massakeskiö is a Finnish term that translates to "center of mass" in English. It refers to the average location of the distribution of mass of an object or a system of objects. Imagine an object being perfectly balanced; the point at which it would balance is its center of mass. For a uniform object, the center of mass is typically located at its geometric center.
In physics, the center of mass is a fundamental concept. It simplifies the analysis of motion for
The calculation of the center of mass involves integrating the position vector of each infinitesimal mass
