The center of percussion is the point on an object where a perpendicular impact will produce translational and rotational forces which perfectly cancel each other out at some given pivot point, so that the pivot will not be moving momentarily after the impulse.

Weight of a body is the force with which it is pulled down by earth's gravity, so obviously the point at which the entire weight of a body acts is called the center of gravity.

Centre of gravity is a point where the total weight of the body is centuries and it's also Uniq for the related body, it is not depending on the position of the body.

A specific point in which a body whole weight depend on it. That point is called centre of gravity.

When the position changed then its orientation is changed, but not center of gravity.
