Halliday, Resnick & Walker β€” Rotation: Problem Problem_65

A tall, cylindrical chimney falls over when its base is ruptured. Treat the chimney as a thin rod of length \( L = 55.0 \text{ m} \). At the instant it makes an angle of \( 35.0^\circ \) with the vertical as it falls, what are (a) the radial acceleration of the top, and (b) the tangential acceleration of the top. (Hint: Use energy considerations, not a torque.) (c) At what angle \( \theta \) is the tangential acceleration equal to \( g \)?

πŸ“ Solution Approach

Find: (a) the radial acceleration of the top; (b) the tangential acceleration of the top; (c) At what angle \
