Find the volume of the solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by  and

y = 0 about the line x = 2.

 

(1)   Draw, Label, Points of Intersection , if x = 0 and x = 1

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(2)   Cylindrical Shell Method (Why is this best option?)

 

(Begin w/Rectangle parallel to the axis of revolution.)

 

Requires width of the rectangle:    OR 

       Average radius of the shell (part of ):

 (Distance from center of rectangle to the axis of revolution)

 

   = 

 

 

Height of the rectangle: =

 

 

(3)   Set Up the Integral and Evaluate:

 

= ...           =

 

Ex (HW #31)

 

The given interval represents the volume of a solid. Describe the solid

 

 

 

Shell : Hint: 4 parts w/in the integral the first of which is  which indicates the formula .

 

r(y) placed second, r(y) = 3-y.  This is the distance from the axis of revolution to the center of the rectangle/shell.  Axis of revolution would be y = 3. [Note: If the axis of revolution was y = -3, r(y) would be y+3.

 

h(y) is the height of the rectangle/shell which is placed third.  h(y) is the function or the difference of two functions.  Simplest case is  which is a sideways parabola, another option is using two functions  and x = 1. 

 

Summary:

 

The solid is obtained by rotating the region bounded by

(i)  , x = 0 and y = 0 about the line y = 3 using cylindrical shells.

 

OR

 

(ii)  , x = 1 and y = 0 about the line y = 3 using cylindrical shells.
