That may actually have been right, since the submerged volume would increase more and more rapidly as it sinks. Though obviously at some point it would have to just sink.

Anyway, it doesn't really matter, because you couldn't get a cone to float like that; point first is an unstable equilibrium, so it would quickly flip over and turn into the other problem. :P

Surgoshan:
Actually, it would lay on its side and become a different problem entirely.

Still, I found my mistake.  I was thinking of 'd' as the submerged distance, but I'd written it and solved it as the unsubmerged distance.  Now my answer makes sense; the denser the cone gets, the less unsubmerged it is.
