Question:

A roadside ice-cream stand uses rotating cones to catch the eyes of travelers. Each cone rotates about an axis perpendicular to its axis of symmetry and passing through its apex. The sizes of the cones vary, and the owner wonders if it would be more energy-efficient to use several smaller cones or a few big ones. To answer this, he must calculate the moment of inertia of a homogeneous right circular cone of height H, base radius R, and mass density ρ. What is the result?
