A centroid is an object's geometric center. For an object of
uniform composition, its centroid is also its center of mass.
Often the centroid of a complex composite body is found by,
first, cutting the body into regular shaped segments, and then
by calculating the weighted average of the segments'
centroids. An object is made from a uniform piece of sheet
metal. The object has dimensions of a = 1.45 ft, where a is
the diameter of the semi-circle, b = 3.22 ft, and c = 2.05 ft. A
hole with diameter d = 0.650 ft is centered at (1.15, 0.725).
Part E
The specific weight of the cone and scoop of ice cream are Ycone = 10.0 lb/ft³ and Yice cream = 45.0 lb/ft³, respectively. What is, the location
of the center of gravity of the cone (i.e., the cone and scoop of ice cream)?
Express your answer numerically in feet to three significant figures.

Correct answer is shown. Your answer 0.428 ft was either rounded differently or used a different number of significant figures than
required for this part.
What is the maximum angle you can rotate the cone before the scoop of ice cream falls out? Assume that the scoop of ice cream acts like a perfect
sphere and does not stick to the cone.
Enter your answer numerically in degrees (from the vertical) to three significant figures.
