The unique location where the weighted relative position of the distributed mass accumulates to zero is known as the centre of mass (also known as the balance point) of a distribution of mass in space. Here is where a force can be applied to produce a linear acceleration without also producing an angular acceleration. When calculations in mechanics are made in relation to the centre of mass, they are frequently made simpler. It is a fictitious location where one can suppose that an object's full mass is concentrated in order to see its motion.
