thats wonderful if you knew exactly where L is...but wait cant determine L till you determine the total weight....but wait what if the tree is hollow.... oh yeah ill just hit it with a something to determine if its solid or not...close enough. tooooooooo many variables to get an accurate assement.besides..."hinged at ground level"...."tree is cut off" why even try to determine something so grotesquely useless. hinge wood is a huge factor in the "resistance" portion of this little mind fart. i guess if you were bored and wanted to sound "smart" to the unthinking itd probably be !@#$...whatever.
