What is the approximate volume of the slice with respect to y?

zehanz · Answer

The half-circle has equation x²+y²=49.
At height y, this means that x = sqrt(49-y²)
So the approximate volume of this slice is 2*√(49-y²)*10*Δy

Now try to make the Riemann-sum and convert to an integral...

thank you. integral 0 to 7 [2*√(49-y²)*10*dy]
