Roughly speaking, a body will be stable if its center of gravity, projected downward, is inside the surface on which it rests.
If the center of gravity of an object falls below its support base, it is in stable equilibrium. If the center of gravity falls outside the support base, it is in unstable equilibrium. You can determine the stability by assessing the relationship between the object's center of gravity and its base of support.
An example of unstable equilibrium in sports is balancing on a balance beam in gymnastics. Athletes must continuously adjust their position to stay on the beam, as any slight movement can cause them to lose balance and fall off.
The centre of gravity does not, by itself, determine whether an object is at rest or in motion. The location of the centre of gravity, relative to where the object is supported, can contribute one of many forces that can act on the object. And it is is the [vector] sum of these forces which determines whether the object remains at rest or in uniform motion.
The combined center of gravity is the point where the average position of the individual center of gravity of all objects in a system is located. It is calculated by taking into account the mass and position of each object relative to a reference point. The combined center of gravity provides information on the overall balance and stability of the system.
A metre rod will be in the state of neutral equilibrium.This is because its centre of gravity remains same whether its raised or not.It has a fixed centre of gravity.
Yes, the position of the Metacentre depends on the position of the centre of gravity. If the centre of gravity is above the Metacentre, the ship will be stable. If the centre of gravity is below the Metacentre, the ship will be unstable.
If the center of gravity of an object falls below its support base, it is in stable equilibrium. If the center of gravity falls outside the support base, it is in unstable equilibrium. You can determine the stability by assessing the relationship between the object's center of gravity and its base of support.
It is more difficult to lean backwards because the centre of gravity of the body lower and unstable equilibrium establishes and difficult to come back to original position. SLPS director
When a body is in unstable equilibrium, on slight displacement the centre of gravity of the body will be lowered. If the line of action of its weight lies outside the base area of the body, it will topple. Objects that have high centres of gravity, a small base area, or are top-heavy are more likely to be in unstable equilibrium. Stability can be increased by lowering the centre of gravity and/or increasing the area and/or the weight of the base.
It raises the boat's centre of gravity which will in turn make it more unstable.
An example of unstable equilibrium in sports is balancing on a balance beam in gymnastics. Athletes must continuously adjust their position to stay on the beam, as any slight movement can cause them to lose balance and fall off.
Because the height of the engine would raise the cars centre of gravity - making it unstable !

Every object on the Earth is governed by a force called Gravity. But regardless to the shape of the object, every oject has a 'centre of Gravity'. To, attain the position of stability the centre of gravity and the centre of mass of that object should be on same vertical line (perpendicular to earth). So, when man lift the heavy weight it total mass increased and and the centre of mass deviates from the centre of gravity of that man (man+ weight), so to maintain the stability man bow down to bring back its centre of mass with its centre of gravity. and in this way he can walk/stand with the load, otherwise we will fall back with its load.

It isn't. Gravity can be viewed as emanating from the centre of a body with mass. As the distance increases from the centre then the gravity decreases.
As compared to Earth, you mean? If an object doesn't change its shape, the center of mass doesn't depend on gravity - and the center of gravity hardly does so.
