Question: `q5.7.4 (was 5.7.4 vol of solid of rev abt x axis, y = `sqrt(4-x^2)

What is the volume of the solid?

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

‘sqrt(4-x^2)=0 solving for x we get x=+/- 2

‘sqrt(4-0^2)=y we get y=2

This is a semi circle with base x axis and radius 2 or ‘sqrt(4-x^2)

A=’pi*r^2=’pi(‘sqrt(4-x^2))^2=’pi(4-x^2)

Following the given interval in the given solution

V=int.(‘pi*(4-x^2) dx,x,0,2)=’pi int.((4-x^2) dx, x, 0, 2)

V=’pi*[4x-(x^3/3)] from 0 to 2 = ‘pi[(8-(8/3)-0] = ‘pi((24/3)-(8/23) = 16’pi/3

?????Why do we not evaluate this integral from x=-2 to x=2?????

Given Solution:

`a*& If the curve is revolved about the x axis the radius of the circle at position x will be the y value radius = `sqrt(4 - x^2).

The cross-section at that position will therefore be pi * radius^2 = pi ( sqrt(4 - x^2) ) ^ 2 = pi ( 4 - x^2).

The volume of a 'slice' of thickeness `dx will therefore be approximately pi ( 4 - x^2 ) * `dx, which leads us to the integral int(pi ( 4 - x^2) dx, x from 0 to 2).

An antiderivative of 4 - x^2 = 4 x - x^3 / 3. Between x = 0 and x = 2 the value of this antiderivative changes by 4 * 2 - 2^3 / 3 = 16 / 3, which is the integral of 4 - x^2 from x = 0 to x = 2. Multiplying by pi to get the desired volume integral we obtain

volume = pi ( 16/3) = 16 pi / 3. *&*& DER

Self-critique (if necessary):See question in solution. I did not see anywhere stating to evaluate from 0 to 2. Also, I did not see any review questions for this section 5.7 nor do I have a section 5.7 in my book to be able to reference to another problem. Although, I did work the problem for both intervals but I only showed from 0 to 2 on this assignment.

You are correct. The region does extend from -2 to 2. I was careless with those limits.

Question: `q5.7.16 (was 5.7.16) vol of solid of rev abt x axis region bounded by y = x^2, y = x - x^2

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

Setting the equations equal to each other and solving for x you get x=0 and x=1/2. This will be the interval to evaluate. Plugging in 1/4 into both equations, you see that x-x^2 is the greater function on the interval 0

Int.(‘pi(x-x^2)^2-(x^2)^2 dx, x, 0, 1/2) factor out the ‘pi you get

V=’pi * int.((x-x^2)^2 - (x^2)^2 dx, x, 0, 1/2) multiply out and simplify to get

V=’pi * int(x^2-2x^3+x^4-x^4 dx, x, 0, 1/2)

V=’pi * [(x^3 / 3) - (x^4 / 2)] from 0 to 1/2

V=’pi * [(1/24) - (1/32)] = ‘pi/96

????This varies from your answer. I believe you integrated ((x-x^2)^2 - (x^2) dx, x, 0, 1/2) and forgot to square the (x^2). When I evaluated it with squaring it, I got the answer you have. If I am wrong, please let me know?????

.............................................

Given Solution:

`a y = x^2 and y = x - x^2 intersect where x^2 = x - x^2, i.e., where 2x^2 - x = 0 or x(2x-1) = 0.

This occurs when x = 0 and when x = 1/2.

So the region runs from x=0 to x = 1/2.

Over this region y = x^2 is less than y = x - x^2. When the region is revolved about the x ais we will get an outer circle of radius x - x^2 and an inner circle of radius x^2. The area between the inner and outer circle is `pi (x-x^2)^2 - `pi(x^2)^2 or `pi ( (x-x^2)^2 - x^2). We integrate this expression from x = 0 to x = 1/2.

The result is -`pi/40. ** DER

Self-critique (if necessary):My answer varies from your answer. See question in the solution.

@&

I clearly stated that

`pi (x-x^2)^2 - `pi(x^2)^2

was equal to

`pi ( (x-x^2)^2 - x^2),

which is clearly not the case. As you say, I neglected to square x^2.

Squaring that term we do get pi/96, as you say.

... and, of course, a negative result doesn't make sense at all.

Question: `q5.7.18 (was 5.7.18) vol of solid of rev abt y axis y = `sqrt(16-x^2), y = 0, 0

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

‘sqrt(16-x^2)=0 solving for x you get x = +/- 4 since we are looking at 0

Y=’sqrt(16-0^2) = 4 so we will evaluate the integral between y values 0 and 4.

Rewrite the equation as x=’sqrt(16-y^2)=radius

A=’pi*r^2=’pi*(‘sqrt(16-y^2))^2=’pi*(16-y^2)

V= int.(‘pi*(16-y^2) dy, y, 0, 4) factor out the pi and integrate

V= ‘pi * [16y - (y^3/3)] from 0 to 4 = ‘pi[(64-(64/3)) - 0] = ‘pi * ((192-164)/3) = (128’pi)/3

confidence rating #$&*:3

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

`a At x = 0 we have y = 4, and at x = 4 we have y = 0. So the y limits on the integral run from 0 to 4.

At a given y value we have

y = sqrt(16 - x^2) so that

y^2 = 16 - x^2 and

x = sqrt(16 - y^2).

At a given y the solid will extend from x = 0 to x = sqrt(16 - y^2), so the radius of the solid will be sqrt(16 - y^2).

So we integrate pi x^2 = pi ( sqrt(16 - y^2) ) ^2 = pi ( 16 - y^2) from y = 0 to y = 4.

An antiderivative of pi ( 16 - y^2) with respect to y is pi ( 16 y - y^3 / 3).

We get

int( pi ( 16 - y^2), y, 0, 4) = pi ( 16 * 4 - 4^3 / 3) - pi ( 16 * 0 - 0^3 / 3) = 128 pi / 3.

This is the volume of the solid of revolution. ** DER

Question: `q5.7.31 (was 5.7.30) fuel take solid of rev abt x axis y = 1/8 x^2 `sqrt(2-x)

What is the volume of the solid?

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

Setting y=0 and solving for x you get x=2 and x=0. This is our interval.

A=’pi*r^2=’pi * (1/8 * x^2 * ‘sqrt(2-x))^2 multiply, simplify, and factor out ‘pi/64

A= (‘pi/64)*(2x^4-x^5)

V= int((‘pi/64)*(2x^4-x^5) dx, x, 0, 2) factor out ‘pi/64

V=’pi/64 * int. ((2x^4-x^5) dx, x, 0, 2)

V=(‘pi/64) * [(2x^5/5) - (x^6/6)] from 0 to 2

V=(‘pi/64) * [((2*2^5)/5) - (2^6/6) - 0]

V=(‘pi/64) * [(64/5) - (64/6)] = (‘pi/64) * (32/15) = ‘pi/30

confidence rating #$&*:3

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

`a The radius of the solid at position x is 1/8 x^2 sqrt(2-x) so the cross-sectional area at that point is

c.s. area = pi * (1/8 x^2 sqrt(2-x) )^2 = pi/64 * x^4(2-x) = pi/64 * ( 2 x^4 - x^5).

The volume is therefore

vol = int(pi/64 * ( 2 x^4 - x^5), x, 0, 2).

An antiderivative of 2 x^4 - x^5 is 2 x^5 / 5 - x^6 / 6 so the integral is

pi/64 * [ 2 * 2^5 / 5 - 2^6 / 6 - ( 2 * 0^5 / 5 - 0^6 / 6) ] = pi / 64 * ( 64 / 30) = pi/30. ** DER
