Example : Find the volume of the solid generated by revolving the region between the parabola ? = ?2+ 1 and the line ? = 3 about the line ? = 3 3 = ?2+ 1 ? = 2 2 2 ??2?? = ? 3 ?2 12?? ? = 2 2 2 2 2 ?2 2?? = ? 4 4?2+ ?4?? = ? 1 2 2 2 = ? 4? 4?3 +?5 =64? 2 15 X=3 3 5 2
Washer method If the region we revolve to generate a solid does not border on or cross the axis of revolution , the solid has a hole. The cross sections are washers instead of disks. Example: The region bounded by the parabola ? = ?2 and the line ? = 2? in the first quadrant is revolved about the y-axis to generate a solid. Find the volume of the solid. 2? = ?2 ?2 2? = 0 ? = ?2 ? ? 2 = 0 ? = 0, ? = 2 4 4 ? ?2 ?2 (? 2)2?? = ? ? = ? ?? 4 0 0 4 ?2 2 ?3 =8 = ? 3? 120
Example: Find the volume generated by revolving the area enclosed by ? = ?2+ 1 ,? = ? + 3 about the x-axis ?2+ 1 = ? + 3 ? = ?2+ 1 2 ?2 ? 2 = 0 ? = 2,? = 1 ? ?2 ?2?? ? = 1 -1 2 2 ? ? + 32 ?2+ 12?? = 1 2 2 ? ?2+ 6? + 9 ?4 2?2 1 ?? = ? ?2+ 6? + 8 ?4?? = 1 1 2 = ? ?3 3+ 3?2+ 8? ?5 = 21? 5 1 Example: Find the volume of solid generated by revolving the region by ? = ?2 and ? = ? about the x-axis. ?2= ? ? = 1,? = 1 1,1 1 1 ?2 2 ?3 =? ? ? ?2?? = ? ? = 3 6 0 0
Volumes using Cylindrical Shells ?? ? ?? , where A(x) is an integral The volume of a solid as the definite integral ? = ? cross sectional area of the solid. The area A(x) was obtained by slicing through the solid with a plane perpendicular to x-axis. However, this method of slicing in sometimes awkward to apply . To overcome this difficulty, we use the same integral definition for volume in different way by using Cylindrical Shells method. Example: Find the volume generated by revolving the region enclosed by the parabola ? = 3? ?2 ????? ? ? ? = 1 ?? ??= 3 2? = 0 3? ?2= 0 ? 3 ? = 0 ? =3 2 ??? ? =9 ? = 0 ??? ? = 3 3 2,9 4 ? ???. 4 ???? = 2? ? ??? ?????? ? ??? ??? ? ???? = 2? ? + 1 ? -1 y x 0 ? ?? ? + ? ?? ???? ? = ? 3 2? 3?2 ?3+ 3? ?2?? ? = 0 3 2?2 ?4 2 3?3+3 =45? = 2? 4 2 0
