Toppling chimneys often break apart in mid-fall because the mortar between the bricks cannot withstand
much shear stress. As the chimney begins to fall, shear forces must act on the topmost sections to
accelerate them tangentially so that they can keep up with the rotation of the lower part of the stack. For
simplicity, let us model the chimney as a uniform rod of length ℓ pivoted at the lower end. The rod
starts at rest in a vertical position (with the frictionless pivot at the bottom) and falls over under the
influence of gravity. What fraction of the length of the rod has a tangential acceleration greater than
gsinθ, where θ is the angle the chimney makes with the vertical?

A 4.00-m length of light nylon cord is wound around a uniform cylindrical spool
of radius 0.500 m and mass 1.00 kg. The spool is mounted on a frictionless axle
and is initially at rest. The cord is pulled from the spool with a constant
acceleration of magnitude 2.50 m/s2. (a) How much work has been done on the
spool when it reaches an angular speed of 8.00 rad/s? (b) Assuming that there is
enough cord on the spool, how long does it take the spool to reach this angular
speed? (c) Is there enough cord on the spool?

A circular pizza of radius R has a circular piece of radius R/2 removed from
one side, as shown in Figure P12.6. Clearly, the center of gravity has moved
from C to C’ along the x axis. Show that the distance from C to C’ is R/6.
(Assume that the thickness and density of the pizza are uniform throughout.)

A carpenter’s square has the shape of an L, as shown in Figure P12.7. Locate
its center of gravity.

A uniform ladder of length L and mass m1 rests against a frictionless wall.
The ladder makes an angle θ with the horizontal. (a) Find the horizontal and
vertical forces that the ground exerts on the base of the ladder when a
firefighter of mass m2 is a distance x from the bottom. (b) If the ladder is just
on the verge of slipping when the firefight is a distance d from the bottom, what is the coefficient of
static friction between the ladder and the ground?

A 1,500-kg automobile has a wheel base (the distance between the axles) of 3.00 m. The center o fmass
of the automobile is on the center line at a point 1.20 m behind the front axle. Find the force exerted by
the ground on each wheel.
