Consider an empty thin ice cream cone standing with its tip at the origin. The height of the cone is 7 and the radius of the top is 5. Find the center of gravity of the cone by following the steps below. Assume the density of the cone is constant 1.
a. We parametrize the cone S with s(r,t)=(rcos(t),rsin(t),) where 0t2 and 0r5.
b. The partial derivatives are sr(r,t)=(,,) and st(r,t)=(,,).
c. The cross product is sr(r,t)st(r,t)=(,,).
d. The norm of the cross product is sr(r,t)st(r,t)=.
e. m=S1dS=
f. mz=SzdS=
g. The center of gravity is (0,0,z) where z=mzm=.
