Given two functions, and , which form a bounded region on , what is their volume when revolved around using washers?
Which method would be most effective to find the volume of the solid formed by rotating the region bounded by and around the x-axis from to ?
Disk Method, as it is suitable for solids with no hole in the middle.
Washer Method, because it accommodates non-constant gap between curves.
Shell Method, since it simplifies computation for rotation around an axis parallel to shapes.
Cross-section Method, as it is often used for simple geometrical shapes.
For a solid created by revolving around the line below it, how would you modify this integral , representing a typical washer method formula when revolving around the x-axis?
Substitute into your radius calculation to account for vertical shift.
Divide overall integral by [MODIFIER] before plugging in values of f(x).
Multiply overall integral by [MODIFIER] after evaluating it from bounds [].
Add [MODIFIER] directly inside your integral bounds changing them from [].
