Question
The solid S in Figure 25 is the intersection of two cylinders of radius r whose axes are perpendicular. (a) The horizontal cross section of each cylinder at distance y from the central axis is a rectangular strip. Find the strips width. (b) Find the area of the horizontal cross section of S at distance y. (c) Find the volume of S as a function of r.
Solution
The first step in solving 6.2 problem number 26 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: The solid S in Figure 25 is the intersection of two cylinders of radius r whose axes are perpendicular. (a) The horizontal cross section of each cylinder at distance y from the central axis is a rectangular strip. Find the strips width. (b) Find the area of the horizontal cross section of S at distance y. (c) Find the volume of S as a function of r.
From the textbook chapter Setting Up Integrals: Volume, Density, Average Value you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
