Consider the cube balanced on a cylinder as described in Example 4.7 (page 130). Assuming that b < r, use the Lagrangian approach to find the angular frequency of small oscillations about the top. The simplest procedure is to make the small-angle approximations to before you differentiate to get Lagr
