प्रश्न
Give scientific reason for the following:
While climbing a hill you will try to bend your body forward.
उत्तर
We bend forward in order to keep ourselves in a stable equilibrium while climbing up a hill. By bending forward we increases the base of the support, so that the vertical line passing through our centre of gravity still falls within the base.
