검증된 단계별 안내

Identify the region R bounded by the curves: \(y = \sqrt{x}\), \(y = 0\), and \(x = 4\). This region lies between the x-axis and the curve \(y = \sqrt{x}\) from \(x=0\) to \(x=4\).
Since the solid is generated by revolving the region R about the x-axis, and we are asked to use the shell method, we consider vertical shells parallel to the axis of revolution. However, the shell method is typically easier when revolving around the y-axis or a vertical line. Here, revolving around the x-axis, it is more natural to use shells in terms of \(y\).
Express \(x\) in terms of \(y\) from the curve \(y = \sqrt{x}\). Squaring both sides gives \(x = y^2\). The bounds for \(y\) are from \(0\) to \(2\) because when \(x=4\), \(y=\sqrt{4}=2\).
The shell radius is the distance from the shell to the axis of rotation (x-axis), which is simply \(y\). The shell height is the horizontal length of the shell, which is from \(x=0\) to \(x=y^2\), so the height is \(y^2\).
Set up the volume integral using the shell method formula: \(V = 2\pi \int_{a}^{b} (\text{radius})(\text{height}) \, dy = 2\pi \int_0^2 y \cdot y^2 \, dy = 2\pi \int_0^2 y^3 \, dy\). This integral will give the volume of the solid.

Shell Method for Volume

The shell method calculates the volume of a solid of revolution by integrating cylindrical shells. Each shell's volume is found by multiplying its circumference, height, and thickness. This method is especially useful when the axis of rotation is parallel to the axis of the function being integrated.

Setting up the Integral with Respect to y

Since the region is revolved about the x-axis, and the shell method involves cylindrical shells perpendicular to the axis of rotation, the integral is set up with respect to y. The radius of each shell is the distance from y to the x-axis, and the height corresponds to the horizontal length of the region at that y-value.

Understanding the Region Bounded by Curves

The region R is bounded by y = √x, y = 0, and x = 4. This defines a finite area under the curve y = √x from x = 0 to x = 4. Understanding these boundaries is essential to determine the limits of integration and the expressions for radius and height in the shell method.
