Re: Physics: Center of Mass and Tipping
i believe that you would just find the robot's center of mass, then calculate the work required to move that point directly over the pivot where the robot would tip(most likely the bottom corner of the bumper). then just find the required force/acceleration with basic equations.

Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.
