Why would the four legged stool be more likely to rock from side to side?
Compared to a 3-legged stool it would. Consider the 3 or 4 points where the bottom of the legs make contact with the floor (which need not be even). Any three points are always in one plane so all points of contact for a 3-legged stool will always lie in the plane, thereby preventing rocking. Four points need not be coplanar and if they are not, the stool will rock.
What is advantage of three legged stool?
A plane is defined by three points, so a three legged stool is stable because the points on the end of the stool's legs are coplanar
Three non-collinear points determine a?
Plane. (That's why a 3-legged stool never wobbles.)
Why is three legged stool stronger than a four legged chair?
it isnt It is not stronger. True, a 3-leg will not wobble because 3 points define a plane. However, a 3-legged table will tip over more easily than a 4-legged table. I suspect some science guru has done the physics on this and can prove what I say.

What is a 3 legged seat called?
Tripod
Why is a three legged stool not rock as much as a four legged stool?
Three points are the minimum required to define a geometric Plane. Any 3-legged stool, then, can only exist on a single Plane, and cannot alternate between any two Planes (i.e., rock). By combining any 3 of the 4 or more legs on the stool could define a separate plane on which the stool could stand. There are 4 separate configurations of 3 legs upon which a 4-legged table could stand: ABC AB D A CD BCD

Do 3 distinct points always lie on the same plane?
Yes. That's why a 3-legged stool never wobbles.

What three legged stool was a real swinger?
no it was a stool and stools cant speak let alone sing.
What was the furniture peasants had?
They really didn't have furniture. There may have been a table, a 3 legged stool, and planks of wood for a bed.

Punishments in 1900's?
They use the paddle and the one legged stool.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of three-legged stools as opposed to those with four legs?
When you have a four legged stool it can be unbalanced if one of legs is a different length than the others. if you have a three legged stool than even if one of the legs is uneven it will still balance evenly.
