Ok which function is on top?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
y=sqrt2, bounded on left by y -axis and below by x=y^2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
just confirming it is
y=\[y=\sqrt(2)\]
x= x^2
right functions?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
-- correction
x=y^2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes

Ok so x=y^2 is a side way parabola facing in the positive x direction(right)
y=sqrt(2) is just a horizonal striaght line
We need to find intersection of of lines
OpenStudy (anonymous):
y=sqrt2 right?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
The intersection point will have y=sqrt(2)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
when x = 2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what is x intersection is 2

so (2,sqrt(2)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
good so far?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So the region we are rotating has these points(0,0)-- origin (0,sqrt(2)top left corner, (2,sqrt(2) intersection
OpenStudy (anonymous):
any questions?

so far good, i have a drawing set up
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So we are going to use shell method which is just add up bunch off cylinder
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Volume of cylinder is pi*radius^2*h
OpenStudy (anonymous):
got ya
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So if you look your drawing(may be draw horizonal rectangle) you will see that the y value of function represent radius

and the function x=y^2 represent h
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yea from the integral of 0 to sqrt2 right?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[2\pi\int\limits(y*y^2 dy(\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you got the limit of the integration right

so just integrate that? with the height as y^2?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oooh thank you, i kept thinking of subtracting sqrt2 from the height wasn't really paying attention that this was respect to y. Thank you for all your help:)
