Answer:
A pencil balanced at its tip with centre of gravity G at the highest position will be left, the pencil will topple over weight acting at G about its tip and fall down. This is called the unstable equilibrium. In unstable equilibrium,
a body may be made to stay only for a moment.
Thus a body is unable to keep itself in the state of
unstable equilibrium. Thus If a body does not return to its previous position when sets free after a slightest tilt, it is said to
be in unstable equilibrium.
