Let C be the curve y=4√x for 2.8≤x≤4.3.
Find the surface area of revolution about the x-axis of C.
Surface area =∫4.32.8f(x) dx where
f(x)=
Write your answer in this format: 2π⋅4√x+424
Now integrate to find surface area
Surface area =∫4.32.8f(x) dx=
To find the surface area of revolution, recall the formula for surface area when rotating a curve around the x-axis. Consider how to express the derivative dydx for the given function, and how it fits into the surface area formula. Remember to set up your integral carefully, paying attention to the given bounds.
