find the volume of the solid generated by revolving the following region about the y-axis. the region in the first quadrant bounded above by the parabola, y=2x^2, below by the x-axis and on the right by the line x=3

Shell method height =function radius=x

i have no clue how to do the shell,washer or disk method....i jujst dont get it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[2\pi \int _0^32 x^2 *xdx\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok, I will teach you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Let'd do washer first 1) in washer you are adding up bunch of area of circle pi r^2 2) in shell you are adding up bunch of cylinder(area of ) 2 Pi r h dx (dx is for thickness of cylinder)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so how do i decipher which i need to do?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You can always do in in either shell or disk(washer)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If we were to try to do this problem in disk method, we would have need the equation in terms of y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay i gotcha there

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so if i do the shell method it would be 2pi*2x^2 xdx and then integrate that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes
