Studdy Solution
STEP 1
Assumptions1. The region is enclosed by the curves , , , and .
. The region is rotated about the x-axis to form a solid.
3. The volume of the solid is calculated using the method of cylindrical shells.
STEP 2
The volume of a solid of revolution can be found using the method of cylindrical shells. The formula for the volume of a cylindrical shell is given bywhere is the height of the shell and is the radius of the shell.
STEP 3
In this case, the height of the shell is given by the function and the radius of the shell is . Therefore, we can write the volume of the solid as
STEP 4
We can split the integral into two parts
STEP 5
The first integral can be solved using integration by parts, where and . The formula for integration by parts is
STEP 6
We can find and
STEP 7
Substitute , , , and into the integration by parts formula
STEP 8
The second integral is a standard integral
STEP 9
The second part of the original integral is a simple polynomial integral
STEP 10
Evaluate all the integrals and substitute the results back into the volume formula
STEP 11
Calculate the volume.
After performing the calculations, we find that the volume of the solid is approximately5.438 cubic units.
