The uniform, square block above is at rest, but about to fall. The centre of mass G is initially
infinitesimally to the right of a vertical line through O, so the block will tip to the right. O slides on
the surface with no friction (you may assume that O remains in contact with the surface). We will
determine the velocity of A as it strikes the surface.
