Find the force P needed to hold the 10-m-long cylindrical object in position as shown in figure.
2. A solid consists of a cylinder and a hemisphere of equal radius fixed base to base. Find the
ratio of the radius to the height of the cylinder, so that the solid has its centre of gravity at
the common face.
(Ans. 2:11
Hint. For stable equilibrium, the centre of the body should beelow the common face or
maximum lie on it. So take the centre of gravity of the body at a distance (a) from the
bottom of the hemisphere.
