The broom can stand by itself, because the center of gravity is directly above the edge on which it balances. And the bristles are soft enough to spread out a bit at the contact point with the floor and provide a stable base to support the handle and allow the broom to balance.

∙ 12y agoMy broom does not stand upright without support.
I would say the question itself needs improving.
Mine stood up with little encouragement and has been standing on its own for hours. Called my in-laws and they stood up their broom as well. Both of our brooms are exact opposites, mine is plastic and slanted and theirs is wooden and straight. So...why do they stand up...and so easily at that? Some say it has to do with soft bristles and the amt of gravity, but wouldn't that be different for each type of broom and why, again, was it so easy to stand on a night around the Equinox and not at any other time?

∙ 12y agoAn object's center of mass accounts for why objects, like a broom, can stand on its own. Center of mass means that all of the object's mass is even around one center or point.
"The center of mass of a body may be defined as the average location of the mass distribution."
