Question

An object has the following shape: Its base is the parabola x=y^2 for 0<x<16. For each cross sections are triangles that span the parabola  from its positive coordinates to its negative coordinates with height equal to the length of the span that is s=h. You can assume the apex of each triangle is directly over the x-axis. The resulting object has a ridgeback shape. Find the volume
