Find volumes of solids with a given base and a common shape for all cross sections. Volumes with known cross sections if we know the formula for the area of a cross section we can find the volume of the solid having this cross section with the help of the definite integral.
Volume of a solid using integration. If the cross sections are perpendicular to the y axis then their areas will be functions of y denoted by a y. In this case the volume v of the solid on a b is.
Solids whose cross sections have the same shape. Volumes of known cross sections we have seen how to find the volume that is swept out by an area between two curves when the area is revolved around an axis. This device cannot display java animations.
