We can then split the expression for x to produce two semicicles, where the positive square root component will produce the right side of the circle, and the negative component for the left side.
fL(y)=(R−r)−r2−y2fR(y)=(R−r)+r2−y2
Revolving the right-hand component (fR(y)) around the x-axis would give us the outside shape of the donut. Similarly, revolving the left-hand component (fL(y)) around the x-axis would produce the inside portion (the hole) of the donut.
As such, the volume of the donut V would be the volume produced by revolving the outside minus the inside.
Finally, we substitute the result of this integral into our expression for volume.
V=4π(R−r)∫−rrr2−y2dy=4π(R−r)2πr2=2π2r2(R−r)
2. Find the volume of the solid of revolution by rotating the region bounded by y=2x2,y=8 and the y-axis.
Question open to interpretation
Axis of revolution not specified. Assuming revolution around the y-axis.
y=2x2⟹x=±2y
Since the region is bounded by the y-axis, we only consider the positive component. x=2y
And at x=0, y=0. So, the integral for the volume V is V=π∫08(2y)2dy=π∫082ydy=π[4y2]08=16π.
Long Question 1
In Figure 1, the region R is enclosed by the parabola y=4−(x−3)2 and the line segment AC where A,C are the points (1,0) and (5,0) respectively. B is the vertec ofthe parabola.
A jelly ring in the shape of solid of revolution of the region R is revolved the y-axis as shown in Figure 2. The jelly ring contains two layers and we let h be the height of the lower layer.
(b) (i) Show that the volume of the lower layer of the jelly ring is 8π(8−(4−h)3/2)
Similar to question one, revolving the right-hand side (fBC(y)) will produce the volume of the entire jelly. Revolving the left-hand side (fAB(y)) will produce the volume of the hole.
As such, the volume of the lower portion of the jelly ring Vlower would be the volume produced by revolving the outside minus the inside from 0 to height h.
Let A=3 and B=4−y. Then, (3+4−y)2−(3−4−y)2=(A+B)2−(A−B)2=4AB=124−y.
And so, we have that: Vlower=π∫0h(3+4−y)2−(3−4−y)2dy=π∫0h124−ydy=12π∫0h4−ydy=12π∫0h(4−y)1/2dy=12π[−32(4−y)3/2]0h=12π(−32(4−h)3/2+32(4−0)3/2)=12π(−32(4−h)3/2+316)=12π(31)(−2(4−h)3/2+16)=12π(31)(2)(−(4−h)3/2+8)=8π(−(4−h)3/2+8)=8π(8−(4−h)3/2)
which matches the provided expression for volume.
(ii) If the upper and the lower layers have the same volume, find the value of h. (You leave your answer of h in three decimal places).
Since the integral found for the lower portion is valid for the entire jelly ring, we simply need to change its bound to reflect the upper portion. Vupper=π∫h4124−ydy=12π∫h44−ydy=12π[−32(4−y)3/2]h4=12π(−32(4−4)3/2+32(4−h)3/2)=324π(4−h)3/2=8π(4−h)3/2
Since Vupper=Vlower, we can then solve for h. Vupper8π(4−h)3/2(4−h)32(4−h)3(4−h)3(4−h)34−hh=Vlower=8π(8−(4−h)3/2)=8−(4−h)3=8=4=16=316=−232+4≈1.480
(c) If milk is poured into the center of the jelly ring until it is fully filled. Find the volume of the milk required.
Revolving fAB(y) around the y-axis produces the volume of the hole. So, its volume is also the volume of the milk.
