Physics Coursework By Alex Ratcliffe Planning I am going to investigate the stability of blocks by placing them on to a board and raising it until they fall. The evidence I will need to collect is: the height and centre of mass for each block and the angle at which they fall. I will need to use five regular blocks, the board I will use to raise the blocks must be flat and level and likewise so must the surface I am working on. I will use my scientific knowledge of center of mass to predict at what point the block will fall over. I will raise the board until the block falls over and then I will record the angle at which it falls. I will vary the height of the block each time, everything else should remain the same. I must make sure that the table and board are flat. I can...
