Find the volume V of the described solid S. The base of S is a circular disk with a radius 5r. Parallel cross-sections perpendicular to the base are squares
Do you have a picture of the figure? This isn't much to go on..
there is no picture
first off what do you think it is a cylinder perhaps
with the height = 10r

very nice
so, just apply the formula to get V
Not quite the idea, I think. Let's put the circle on an x-y coordinate plane, centered on (0,0). \(x^{2} + y^{2} = (5r)^{2}\) Then we build squares all along the circle. The drawing has only the central circle. The get smaller as you wander from the Origin. \(2\cdot\int\limits_{0}^{5r}(2y)^{2}\;dx\) That's more like it.
* Whoops. The drawing has only the central SQUARE. Sorry about that.
See the attached image for more drawings.
