Eli5: how is it so easy for cars to flip? Do certain types of cars flip easier than others?
In: Physics
Some are more too heavy than others and since the weight is up high and not really down low, you take a turn and all that weight up top has to go somewhere.
Try an experiment. Take you a pencil or something tall and skinny, and put like an apple on top… oh yeah perfect example! Take a pencil and shove it into a pencil but only at the top… now hold that pencil at the bottom and just move your hand across the table, feel how too heavy that pencil feels? Now flip it around where the Apple is on the table and that pencil is sticking up. Now move that Apple around with your hand. See how when you have the Apple up top how much it tries to lean to one side or the other? But it doesn’t do that when you have the Apple on the ground and the pencil up in the air? It’s KINDA the same thing for vehicles
