Theorem 1.
If f (x) ≥ g(x) for a ≤ x ≤ b, then the area of the region bounded by
y = f (x), y = g(x), x = a, x = b
is
A =
Z (^) b
a
(f (x) − g(x))dx.
Remark. To find the area A of the region enclosed by y = f (x) and y = g(x): Find the intersections, then use the theorem.
Example 1.
Calculate the area of the region bounded by
y = x^2 − 4 x + 7, y = −x^2 + 4x + 1, x = 0, x = 2.
Solution: Step 1. Find intersections: Let (−x^2 +4x+1) = (x^2 − 4 x+7), ⇒ x^2 − 4 x+3 = 0 , ⇒ x = 1, x = 3. Step 2. By using the intersections, the interval (0, 2) is divided into (0, 1) and (1, 2). In (0, 1): x^2 − 4 x + 7 > −x^2 + 4x + 1; In (1, 2): −x^2 + 4x + 1 > x^2 − 4 x + 7. Therefore
A =

(− 2 x^2 + 8x − 6)dx.
Example 2.
Find the area of the region between y = x^1 /^2 and y = x^1 /^3 for 0 ≤ x ≤ 1.
Example 3.
Find the area of the region bounded by the parabolas y = 2x − x^2 and y = x^2. Solution: Step 1. Find intersections: 2x − x^2 = x^2 ⇒ x = 0, x = 1. Step 2. For 0 < x < 1, 2x − x^2 > x^2.
A =

[2x − x^2 − x^2 ]dx = 1 − 23 =^13.
Example 4.

y = sin x, y = cos x, x = 0, x = π 2.
Solution: A = 2
Example 5. Find the area of the region bounded by
y = ex, y = 4e−x, y = 1.
Solution: Intersections:
Case 1: We rotate a region bounded by y = f (x) ≥ 0, x-axis, x = a, x = b around the x-axis (line y = 0). Then the cross section which is perpendicular to x-axis has the area
A(x) = π(f (x))^2 ,
and the volume of the slice is
dV = A(x)dx = π(f (x))^2 dx.
The total volume is

Case 2: We rotate a region bounded by y = f (x), y = g(x), x = a, x = b around x-axis, where f (x) ≥ g(x) ≥ 0. Then the cross section which is perpendicular to x-axis has the area A(x) = πr out^2 − πr^2 in,
where rin = g(x), rout = f (x), dV = A(x)dx,
V =
Z (^) b

π[f (x)^2 − g(x)^2 ]dx.
Example 8. √ Find the volume of the solid obtained when the region bounded by y = ex, y = ln x, x = 1 and x = e is rotated around x-axis.
Solution: The cross-sectional area at x is:
A(x) = πr out^2 − πr^2 in = π(e^2 x^ − ln x).
V =

A(x)dx =
Z (^) e

π(e^2 x^ − ln x)dx = π(^12 e^2 x^ − x ln x + x)|e 1 = π(^12 e^2 e^ − 12 e^2 − 1).
Case 3: We rotate a region bounded by y = f (x), y = g(x), x = a, x = b around the line y = k (k = 0 ⇐⇒ x-axis), where f (x) ≥ g(x) ≥ 0. Then the cross section which is perpendicular to x-axis has the area
A(x) = πr out^2 − πr^2 in,
Then the cross section which is perpendicular to y-axis has the area
A(y) = πr^2 out − πr in^2 ,
where rin = g(y) − k, rout = f (y) − k, dV = A(y)dy,
V =
Z (^) d

[π[f (y) − k]^2 − π[g(y) − k]^2 ]dy.
Example 10. Find the volume of the solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by y = x^3 , y = 8, and x = 0 about the y-axis.
Solution: A(y) = πx^2 = πy^2 /^3.
V =

(1) If we rotate a region bounded by y = f (x), y = 0, x = a, x = b about the y-axis, then small shell has the base area π(x + dx)^2 − πx^2 and the height f (x). Thus
dV = {π(x + dx)^2 − πx^2 }f (x) ≈ 2 πxf (x).

Example 11.
Use cylindrical shells to find the volume of the solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by y = x^3 , y = 8, and x = 0 about the y-axis. Solution: When y = 8, x = 2. Thus
V = 2π

x[8 − x^3 ]dx = 19. 2 π.
Example 12.
Use cylindrical shells to find the volume of the solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by y = 3
x, y = 0, and x = 8 about the x-axis. Solution: When x = 8, y = 2. From y = 3

y[8 − y^3 ]dy = 19. 2 π.
Work done If force is a constant, then: work done= force × distance,

force (in N) = mass (in lb or kg) = mass in kg × acceleration in m/s^2 Work done can have unit ft-lb, or N-m (Joules). 1 ft-lb = 1.36 J, 1lb = 92 ..^82 N = 4.45 N, 1ft=0.305m.
Example 15.
When a particle is located a distance x feet from the origin, a force of 3x^2 + 4x pounds acts on it. How much work is done in moving it from x = 0 to x = 1?
Solution: W =

(3x^2 + 4x)dx = 3(f t − lb).
Hooke’s Law: The force required to maintain a spring stretched x units beyond its natural length is given by: f (x) = kx, where k > 0 is called the spring constant. The work done to stretch a spring with natural length a meters and force f N from b meters to c meters is:
W =
Z (^) c−a
b−a
kxdx,
where f N is the force required to hold the spring stretched from its natural length to b meters.
Example 16.
A force of 40N is required to hold a spring that has been stretched from its natural length of 10cm to a length of 15cm. How much work is done in stretching the spring from 15cm to 18cm?
Solution: 15-10=5cm=0.05m. f (0.05) = 40, ⇒ 0. 05 k = 40, ⇒ k = 800. Thus f (x) = 800 x.
W =
800 xdx = 1. 56 J.
Example 17.
A cylindrical tank of radius 2 m and height 4 m is half-full of water. Find the work (J) required to pump all of the water to a point that is 2 m above the top of the tank. The density of water is ρ = 1000 kg/m^3 and the acceleration of gravity is g = 9.8 m/s^2. Define clearly all the variables that enter into your solution and provide a drawing which shows their meaning. Solution: We introduce the axis as in the graph.
Take a slice at x with height ∆x. The work done to the slice is:
∆W = ρ∆V gx = ρπ 22 ∆xgx = 4πρgx∆x.
Hence
