A hint to get started

Compare two slice directions and translate an axis of rotation

Designer A programs a machine to cut a thin material into the region enclosed by y=2x−3y=\sqrt{2x-3}, 2y=x−42y=x-4 and the x-axis.

(i) Sketch suitable graphs and find its exact surface area. marks

(ii) Rotate that region through four right angles about the x-axis to form a closed object. Find its volume. marks

(iii) Designer B rotates the region bounded by C:y=x2+3C:y=x^2+3, x=4x=4 and both axes through four right angles about x=4x=4. Write the equation of CC translated four units in the negative x-direction, and determine the resulting volume. marks

CJC · Review problems · Question 16

The first region changes its lower boundary at x=4; the second problem becomes a y-axis rotation after translation.
