No, it is a physical change. If you think about cutting the wood, the pieces will be smaller than the log, but they will have all of the same properties as they did when they were put together. An example of a chemical change is burning the wood. The act of burning it would be a chemical change since it is converting the wood into carbon and water vapor.

Explain why burning of wood and cutting it into small pieces are considered as two different types of changes?

Because burnning wood is using energy but breaking is using forces. When wood burns, it's not wood any more. It turns into smoke, ash, and (maybe) charcoal. When you break wood, it's still wood. When you change something into a different substance, that's a chemical change.
