Randall D. Knight β Rotation of a Rigid Body: Problem 60
Your task in a science contest is to stack four identical uniform bricks, each of length \(L\), so that the top brick is as far to the right as possible without the stack falling over. Is it possible, as FIGURE P12.60 shows, to stack the bricks such that no part of the top brick is over the table? Answer this question by determining the maximum possible value of \(d\).
