Looking for the gravity center in a soda can

Another trick from the video. A razão pela qual a lata fica "em pé" é exactamente a mesma da dada no caso dos garfos, é uma questão de centro de gravidade.

What we need:

• 1 soda can,
• water.

How to:

1. Fill 1/3 of the can with water;
2. Place the can on the table with a 40º degrees inclination; 
3. Try to balance it, you will be able to balance the can in a "falling position", if the can starts to rotate over the bottom let it rotate until it stops.

What happens?
There is a position where the can stands in a strange equilibrium.

Why?
Exactly for the same reason the forks found the balance here.
Try this with other recipients and/or cans.

Et voilá!
Magic!

Enjoy!
