a. Suppose we give the domino a sharp, horizontal impulsive push with total momentum p.
i. At what height H above the table is the impulse p required to topple the domino smallest?
ii. What is the minimum value of p to topple the domino?

Suppose a domino stands upright on a table. It has height h, thickness t, width w (as shown below), and mass m. The domino is free to rotate about its edges, but will not slide across the table.
