Vehicles – Center of gravity – Center of inertia

To get the best times on your track, you have to choose your vehicle carefully.

Importance of the shape of the object

The shape of the object is important, and especially its width and height.

In this example, the blue and orange objects are the same size.

If we push horizontally in the middle of each object, we can see that the orange one is likely to tip over more easily than the blue one. I would even say that it is not possible to tip over the blue one.

Imagine cars that look like these 2 pieces and that instead of your finger pressing on the object, it is the centrifugal force. You will choose a car that is as low as possible so that the G-spot is as low as possible to increase stability.

Vehicles like Formula 1 are therefore the most advantageous.
