प्रश्न
Give scientific reason for the following:
When a man climbs a slope he bends forward.
उत्तर
A man bends forward in order to keep himself in a stable equilibrium while climbing up a slope. By bending forward he increases the base of the support, so that the vertical line passing through his centre of gravity may still fall within the base.
