The base of a solid is bounded by y=√(x), y=0, x=2, and x=6. Its cross-sections, taken perpendicular to the x-axis, are squares. Find the volume of the solid in cubic units.

Answer:
8pi units³
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of the solid
= pi × integral of y².dx
= pi × integral of x
pi × [x²/2]
Limits are x = 2 and x = 6
pi × [6²/2 - 2²/2]
pi × (18 - 2)
= 16pi units³
Since the solid is only above the x-axis half of this volume would be generated:
½ × 16pi = 8pi units³
The answer is 8pi units³.
The volume of the solid = pi × integral of y².dx
⇒ pi × integral of x
⇒ pi × [x²/2]
Limits are x = 2 and x = 6
⇒ pi × [6²/2 - 2²/2]
⇒ pi × (18 - 2)
⇒ 16pi units³
Since the solid is only above the x-axis half of this volume would be generated:
⇒ ½ × 16pi = 8pi units³
The amount of space occupied by a three-dimensional figure as measured in cubic units.
