What is a simple explanation for the reason that when a forklift elevates a load it becomes more unstable?

Balance depends on center of gravity. When a forklift elevates a load, it changes it's center of gravity and therefore changes the way it's balanced. Think of how balanced a person is when holding a Bowling ball at waste level. Then think of how that balance is changed as it's lifted upward towards the shoulders.

What makes a nucleus unstable?
The strong nuclear force doesn't balance the electrostatic force.
What does nuetron absorption accomplish in a nuclear reactor?
Neutron absorption is the key to the operation of a nuclear reactor as this is what perpetuates the chain reaction. Neutrons can be absorbed by a number of things within the core of an operating reactor, but when a fuel atom absorbs a neutron, it becomes unstable and fissions. The fission event releases fission fragments, energy, and more neutrons, which will, when absorbed, continue the chain reaction.
Which of the four fundamental forces is involved in radioactive behavior?
If by radioactive you mean the decay of atoms, it would be the residual strong force The residual strong force has an effective range of 10-15 meters and when the nucleus of an atom extends beyond this the nucleus becomes unstable; the force between the protons is unable to counteract the electromagnetic force. If you refer to the decay of particles then it is the weak force.
What happens when you heat a liquid it becomes a?
When you heat a liquid it becomes a gas
What are some changes that may occur when a solid is heated by the sun?
It becomes a liquid, think about boiling ice, it becomes water. Then if you heat water, it becomes a gas.
What can happen when a fire becomes unstable?
When fire becomes unstable, it becomes disastrous. It is difficult to handle it.
What happens when something absorbs a high energy electron?
the absorbing material becomes unstable
What happens if the imbalance between protons and neutrons becomes too great?

What creates thunderstorms?
thunderstorms form when an air mass becomes so unstable that it overturns violently.
What do you call it when too much solvent is in to a solution and it becomes unstable?
That would be a very dilute solution.
What makes closed-loop op amp unstable?
A: It does not. The loop becomes unstable ONLY if there is positive feedback either voltage or phase. For a close loop to be stable negative feedback is required.
What happens during radioactive decay apex?
An unstable nucleus loses particles until it becomes stable.
