A solid cube of wood of side

Reference no: EM13544727

A solid cube of wood of side 2a and mass M is resting on a horizontal surface. The cube is constrained to rotate about an axis AB. A bullet of mass m and speed v is shot at the face opposite ABCD at a height of 4a/3. The bullet becomes embedded in the cube. Find the minimum value of v required to tip the cube so that it falls on face ABCD. Assume m M. (Use any variable or symbol stated above along with the following as necessary: g for the acceleration of gravity.) v = Please explain.
