Distance of the centre of mass of a solid uniform cone from its vertex is `z_0` . If the radius of its base is R and its height is h then `z_0` is equal to:

A

`(5h)/(8)`

B

`(3h^(2))/(8R)`

C

`(h^(2))/(4R)`

D

`(3h)/(4)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`y_(cm)=(intydm)/(intdm)`
`=(underset(0)overset(h)intpir^(2)dyrhoxxy)/((1)/(3)piR^(2)hrho)=(3h)/(4)`
