STABILITY

Stability
Stability=of an object is its ability to

maintain its original position.

Point of equilibrium/ centre of gravity

An object can be balanced at its centre of

gravity
Regular shapes
Irregular shapes

Stability of objects
-the stability of an object is affected by:
(a) position of centre of gravity
The lower the position of the centre of

gravity, the more stable the object

(b) base area
The bigger the base area, the more stable

th object

Centre of gravity of object can lowered by:

A) reduce height
B) make heavier
