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
\[2\pi \int _0^32 x^2 *xdx\]
Ok, I will teach you
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)
so how do i decipher which i need to do?
You can always do in in either shell or disk(washer)
If we were to try to do this problem in disk method, we would have need the equation in terms of y
okay i gotcha there
so if i do the shell method it would be 2pi*2x^2 xdx and then integrate that?
Yes
