    1. (25 points) A portion of an 8-in.-long steel rod of diameter 1.50 in. is turned to form the
    conical section shown. Knowing that the turning process reduces the moment of inertia of the
    rod with respect to the x axis by 20 percent, determine the height h of the cone. The specific
    weight of steel is 0.284 lb/in3, and the volume of a cone is


    Vcone  r 2h
    3
