| A right circular cone of base diameter 3 m and height 4 m having weight of 2 kN. What is the distance of its centre of gravity above the base?
A. 1.0 m
B. 1.5 m
C. 1.33 m
D. 2.66 m
Please scroll down to see the correct answer and solution guide.
Right Answer is: A
SOLUTION
Center of gravity of the right circular cone of base diameter 3m and height 4m from base is:
\(\bar X = \frac{h}{4} = \frac{4}{4} = 1m\)
