Studdy Solution

STEP 1

1. The region is bounded by the curves y=x2 y = x^2 and y=1 y = 1 .
2. The region is rotated about the line y=2 y = 2 .

STEP 2

1. Determine the points of intersection.
2. Set up the integral using the washer method.
3. Evaluate the integral to find the volume.

STEP 3

Determine the points of intersection of the curves y=x2 y = x^2 and y=1 y = 1 .
Set the equations equal to each other to find the intersection points:
x2=1 x^2 = 1
Solve for x x :
x=±1 x = \pm 1
The points of intersection are x=1 x = -1 and x=1 x = 1 .

STEP 4

Set up the integral using the washer method. The outer radius R(x) R(x) is the distance from the line y=2 y = 2 to y=x2 y = x^2 , and the inner radius r(x) r(x) is the distance from y=2 y = 2 to y=1 y = 1 .
R(x)=2x2 R(x) = 2 - x^2 r(x)=21=1 r(x) = 2 - 1 = 1
The volume V V is given by:
V=π11(R(x)2r(x)2)dx V = \pi \int_{-1}^{1} \left( R(x)^2 - r(x)^2 \right) \, dx
Substitute the expressions for R(x) R(x) and r(x) r(x) :
V=π11((2x2)212)dx V = \pi \int_{-1}^{1} \left( (2 - x^2)^2 - 1^2 \right) \, dx

STEP 5

Evaluate the integral:
First, expand the integrand:
(2x2)2=44x2+x4 (2 - x^2)^2 = 4 - 4x^2 + x^4
So the integral becomes:
V=π11(44x2+x41)dx V = \pi \int_{-1}^{1} \left( 4 - 4x^2 + x^4 - 1 \right) \, dx =π11(34x2+x4)dx = \pi \int_{-1}^{1} \left( 3 - 4x^2 + x^4 \right) \, dx
Now, integrate term by term:
V=π[3x43x3+15x5]11 V = \pi \left[ 3x - \frac{4}{3}x^3 + \frac{1}{5}x^5 \right]_{-1}^{1}
Evaluate the definite integral:
V=π([3(1)43(1)3+15(1)5][3(1)43(1)3+15(1)5]) V = \pi \left( \left[ 3(1) - \frac{4}{3}(1)^3 + \frac{1}{5}(1)^5 \right] - \left[ 3(-1) - \frac{4}{3}(-1)^3 + \frac{1}{5}(-1)^5 \right] \right)
=π([343+15][3+4315]) = \pi \left( \left[ 3 - \frac{4}{3} + \frac{1}{5} \right] - \left[ -3 + \frac{4}{3} - \frac{1}{5} \right] \right)
=π([45152015+315][4515+2015315]) = \pi \left( \left[ \frac{45}{15} - \frac{20}{15} + \frac{3}{15} \right] - \left[ -\frac{45}{15} + \frac{20}{15} - \frac{3}{15} \right] \right)
=π(2815+6215) = \pi \left( \frac{28}{15} + \frac{62}{15} \right)
=π(9015) = \pi \left( \frac{90}{15} \right)
=6π = 6\pi
The volume of the solid is:
6π \boxed{6\pi}
