The shaded region shown is revolved about the x-axis. Write and evaluate a disc-method integral for the volume.
Hints
- Read the constant radius and the x-interval from the graph.
- Square the radius to obtain each disc's area.
- Accumulate the constant disc area across the displayed interval.
Solution
1. From the graph, every disc has radius \(2\), and the region extends from \(x=0\) to \(x=5\).
2. Therefore, \(V=\pi\int_0^5 2^2\,\mathrm{d}x=20\pi\) cubic units.
Answer
\(20\pi\) cubic units
