Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{{3h}}{4}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{array}{l}
{y_{cm}} = \frac{{\int {ydm} }}{{\int {dm} }}\\
\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = \frac{{\int\limits_0^h {\pi {r^2}dy\rho  \times y} }}{{\frac{1}{3}\pi {R^2}h\rho }} = \frac{{3h}}{4}
\end{array}\)
