FInd volume of solid obtained by revolving around the y-axis the plane area between the graphy=1-x^2 and x-axis

OpenStudy (amistre64):

define the interval

OpenStudy (amistre64):

and since the revolutions produce circle with areas of pi r^2 ... \[pi\int_{a}^{b}r^2\]r is defined by f(x), therefore \[pi\int_{a}^{b}(f(x))^2~dx\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

n how will i find the intervals as there is no intervals given,is it the intersection point graph

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the x axis is defined to be y=0 when does 1-x^2 = 0?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the x intercepts are defined to be where the graph crosses or touches the x axis ... the x intercepts of a graph are defined by y=0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and as the revolutions r around the y-axis so its interval would be c n d i think am i right that instead oof a n b on intergral sign it would be c n d

OpenStudy (amistre64):

if we were to take this same setup and revolve around the y axis ... we would only use half the region, from 0 to 1 i believe

|dw:1373294671414:dw| or shell it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ya graph depicts right

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the area of the shells, are rectangles of of height f(x) and radius of x, so width of 2pix

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what would be the exact step by step solution for this volume problem

OpenStudy (amistre64):

its a rough summary yes. i would leave it to you to hash out the specifics

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thnx
