Vertical center of gravity

The vertical center of gravity (VCG) is the point within an object where its weight is evenly balanced vertically. Imagine a seesaw: if you place a weight exactly in the middle, it balances perfectly. Similarly, VCG is the height at which the entire weight of an object can be considered concentrated to keep it stable. Lower VCG generally makes an object more stable and less likely to tip over, while a higher VCG can make it more prone to tipping. It's an important factor in design and stability across various structures and vehicles.
