Theory and Examples

If lines are drawn parallel to the coordinate axes through a point P on the parabola y2 = kx, k > 0, the parabola partitions the rectangular region bounded by these lines and the coordinate axes into two smaller regions, A and B.

a. If the two smaller regions are revolved about the y-axis, show that they generate solids whose volumes have the ratio 4:1.

b. What is the ratio of the volumes generated by revolving the regions about the x-axis?
