Known Cross Sections

Volume of solids with given cross section added apr 6 2017 by david1239 in mathematics with this widget you are able to get the volume of a solid with a given cross section of multiple shapes.
Known cross sections. Determine the limits of integration. Cross sections perpendicular to the x axis are in the shape of isosceles right triangles with their hypotenuse in the base of the solid. Because the cross sections are squares perpendicular to the y.
It s going to be quite big might have to scroll down so we can draw the whole thing. The base of a solid is bounded by y x y x3 0 and 1. A squares b equilateral triangles c semicircles d isosceles triangles with the hypotenuse as the base of the solid 3.
B b x y z 3 d view of base region and one representative slice. Squares and rectangles no graph volume with cross sections perpendicular to y axis. Formulas for known cross sections.
Volume with cross sections. Evaluate the definite integral v b a a x dx. Express the area of the cross section a x as a function of x.
This is the currently selected item. Indicated cross sections taken perpendicular to the x axis. It is going to be a square.
We slice the region perpendicular to either the x axis or the y axis as cliff notes accurately states and then we use a definite integral to find the volume. This is the base of a solid which has square cross sections when sliced perpendicular to the x axis i e one side of each square lies in the yellow region. Find the volume of the solid for each of the following cross sections taken perpendicular to the y axis.
