Following are the three types of equilibrium :
- Stable Equilibrium
- Unstable Equilibrium

Examples :
- Chair lying on the floor
- The heavy base of the vehicle
- Table lying on the ground
- Cone lying on its base by lowering its center of gravity
- Bottle lying on its base
2. Unstable Equilibrium : If a body does not return to its previous position when sets free after the slightest tilt is said to be in unstable equilibrium.
Example :
- A bottle standing on the edge of its mouth
- A cone resting on its apex
- A book placed on its edge
3. Neutral Equilibrium : If a body remains in its new position when disturbed from its previous position, it is said to be in a state of neutral equilibrium.
Examples :
