AB Calculus - Hardtke Assignment 6.2: Volumes of Revolution Name ______________________________
Due Date: Friday, 2/1
Think of the curve f(x) = √ over the domain [0, 4]. What happens if you revolve this curve about the x-axis? Example 1: How can we use calculus find the volume of this new solid?
Example 2: If we revolve the semi-circle y = √ about the x-axis, we obviously produce a _______________. Slicing this volume into more and more cross-sections gets our approximation closer to the actual volume.
*Now let’s use an integral to sum an infinite number of “disk” cross-sections.
Example 3: Find the volume of a solid if the region bounded by y = ex; x = 1 and x = 3 is revolved about the x-axis.
1. The region bounded by y = 2 – ½ x, x = 1 and x = 2 is revolved about the x-axis. Find the volume.
2. Find the volume of a solid formed if the region bounded by y = 1 – x2 and y = 0 is revolved about y = 0. Hint: how can you
use symmetry to make the limits on your integral easier to work with?
3. Find the volume of a solid created by revolving the region bounded by y = ¼ x2, x = 2 and y = 0 about the x-axis.
4. Careful: this region is revolved about the Y-axis! Find the volume if the region bounded by y = = x3, x = 0 and y = 8 is
revolved about the Y-axis.
