Answer

$I=29.4Kgm^2$

Work Step by Step

We can determine the required moment of inertia as follows: The mass of the hemisphere is given as $m=\rho V$ $\implies m=7.85\frac{2}{3}(300)^3$ $\implies m=443.91Kg$ The mass of the big cone is $m=\rho V$ $\implies m=7.85(\frac{1}{3})\pi (675)(300)^2$ $\implies m=500Kg$ and the mass of the small cone is $m=\rho V$ $\implies m=785(-\frac{1}{3}\pi (225)(100)^2)$ $\implies m=-18.5Kg$ Now $I=\Sigma I^{\prime}$ $\implies I=\frac{2}{5}(443.91)(0.3)^2+\frac{3}{10}(500)(0.3)^2+\frac{3}{10}(-18.5)(0.1)^2$ This simplifies to: $\implies I=29.4Kgm^2$
