Stress at any point at distance h from the top is due to the weight of part above it
lets consider a 'h' height of the object, where the radius is 'r'.

 mgπr2=c(constant)

m=cπr2g

On differentiating m w.r.t r 

we get,dm=πc2rdrg.....(1)

And the mass of small elemental cylinder is dm

Question Image

dm=ρπr2dh.....(2)

From (1) and (2).

we get, ρπr2dh=2πcgrdr.

0Hdh=2cρgR1R2drrH=2cρglnR2R1

So, R2R1=eρgH2c
