Another volume of a curve question
\[x=\sqrt{4-y^2}\] x=0
|dw:1466985056800:dw|
So from this point im confused. Do I only flip the area in quadrant I?
what are the bounds on this volume? is it the x=0 line ? if so, you can do washers, with radius r= y (but in terms of x) and integrate over x
yup x=0 so \[\int\limits_{-2}^{2}\pi(\sqrt{4-y^2})^2-\int\limits_{-2}^{2}\pi(0)^2\] ?
and what are we rotating around. I was guessing the x-axis (i.e. y=0) ?
rotating around the y-axis
Sorry bounds are -2, 2
the shape starts at x=0 and goes to x=2 (you said x=0 is the lower bound, right ?)
In Exercises 27-44 , sketch the region Ω bounded by the curves. Find the volume of the solid generated by revolving Ω about the y − axis. 38.) \[x=\sqrt{4-y^2}\]\[x=0\]
ok, I sketched the figure.
Bounds would be with respect to y from -2 to 2 I think, because we are revolving it around the y axis
I think it would be: \[\int\limits_{-2}^{2}\sqrt{4-y^2}\]
ok, around the y-axis. So my picture was wrong. But what is x=0 ? don't they mean y=0 for the bounds?
ok I'll go with your theory but you want pi r^2 where r is the x value (in terms of y)
Im not sure, x=0 is just the y-axis so its kind of implied in the question that we would be rotating arounf that anyway? Im not sure why its there.
Oh yea, forgot. Okay.
Alright sweet @phi I think I got it. Thanks for your help
