Volumes: The Disk Method [Resolved]
1. If the area bounded by the parabola y = H - (H/R[tex]^{2}[/tex])x[tex]^{2}[/tex] and the x-axis is revolved about the y-axis, the resulting bullet-shaped solid is a segment of a paraboloid of revolition with height H and radius of base R. Show its volume is half the volume of the circumscribing cylinder
Okay so the thickness of the disk is dy and the area is [tex]\pi[/tex]x[tex]^{2}[/tex]. How do I find the limits of intergration and put x in terms of H and R? Thanks.
