Leaning tower. The leaning Tower of Pisa (Fig. 12.66) is 55 m high and 7.0 m in diameter. The top of the tower is displaced 4.5 m from the vertical. Treat the tower as a uniform, circular cylinder. (a) What additional displacement, measured at the top, would bring the tower to the verge of toppling? (b) What angle would the tower then make with the vertical?
π Solution Approach
Given: 55 m, 7.0 m, 4.5 m
Find: (a) What additional displacement; (b) What angle would the tower then make with the vertical?
