Question:
In 2000, about 70 metric tons of soil were removed from under the Leaning Tower of Pisa, and the angle the tower made with the ground was increased by about 0.5°. Before that, a point near the top of the tower was 50.5 m from a point at the base (measured along the tower), and this top point was directly above a point on the ground 4.25 m from the same base point. See Fig. 4.45. How much did the point on the ground move toward the base point?
