S-I: Centre of mass is that fixed point of a system of particles or a rigid body with in the boundaries or a rigid body with in the boundaries of the system where the entire mass is concentrated.
S-II: Center of gravity of a body is the point through which the whole weight of the body acts.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

Both S-I and S-II are correct

Option A (Both S-I and S-II are correct) is correct because the center of mass is the point where the entire mass is considered concentrated, and the center of gravity is the point where the entire weight acts.
