The objects and the corresponding positions of centre of mass are given below. The FALSE one is
Show Hint
Logic Tip: In geometry, altitudes meet at the Orthocenter, angle bisectors meet at the Incenter, perpendicular bisectors meet at the Circumcenter, and medians meet at the Centroid. Mass distribution always balances around the Centroid!
