A tall, cylindrical chimney falls over when its base is ruptured. Treat the chimney as a thin rod of length 55.0 m. At the instant it makes an angle of `35.0^(@)` with the vertical as it falls, what are (a) the radial acceleration of the top, and (b) the tangential acceleration of the top. ( c) At what angle `theta` is the tangential acceleration equal to g?
