y= 8x^3 , y=0 , x=1 , about x=2
Not sure how but I got the volume to equal 0 so I clearly did something wrong.
For this question, integrating with respect to y is the way to go >:]
Defining R and r
If we have a general volume with the vertical axis of revolution being x = c with the formula \(\int_{a}^{b} \pi*R^2 - \pi*r^2 dy \), we can define \(R = (c - g(y))^2\) and \(r = (c - f(y))^2\)
However, in this case, r stays a constant value of 1 distance away from x = 2, so \(r = 1\)
Now we should define our outer function, \(y = 8x^3\), in terms of y to be g(y).
\(y = 8x^3 \rightarrow \frac{y}{8}=x^3 \rightarrow \sqrt[3]{\frac{y}{8}}=x\) or more simply \(g(y) = \frac{\sqrt[3]{y}}{2}\)
Therefore, \(R = \pi*(2 - \frac{\sqrt[3]{y}}{2})^2\)
Finding Bounds of Integration
Our original x defined bounds of integration were [0,1], so let's redefine with our new g(y) equation set to 0 and 1.
\(0 = \frac{\sqrt[3]{y}}{2} \rightarrow y = 0\) and \(1 = \frac{\sqrt[3]{y}}{2} \rightarrow 2 = \sqrt[3]{y} \rightarrow y=8\)
So, our new bounds of integration are [0,8].
Computing the Integral
Our integral then becomes \(\int_{0}^{8} \pi(2 - \frac{\sqrt[3]{y}}{2})^2 - \pi dy\). I'm a little too lazy to work out the integral in LaTeX right now lol so \(\int_{0}^{8} \pi(2 - \frac{\sqrt[3]{y}}{2})^2 - \pi dy = 15.0796\)
