Q. 25
Question
Write the volume of the two solids of revolution that follow in terms of definite integrals that represent accumulations of disks and/or washers. Do not compute the integrals.
Step-by-Step Solution
VerifiedThe required volume is
The given figure is
A solid of revolution is being formed by rotating the region around y-axis.
The given figure can be shown as below,
The region required to set up the integral should be the region bound by the graph and y-axis.
For the part of region below x-axis, it is clear that the region is bound by the function for vertical line at . the interval for the y-variable is . Hence, it forms a disk of radius x-units.
Thus, the integral formed by rotation this part of region around y-axis is created as .
Now, the part above x-axis is not bounded by y-axis. But it can be expressed as a washer with outer radius being the graph of and inner radius is the graph of the function.
The equation of graph of the function can be rewritten as . The y-interval for this region is
Thus, the integral of the volume formed by rotating the upper part of given region is expressed as
Add both the integrals to form the integral for complete volume of solid of revolution for entire region.
