Question

Consider the curve defined by the equation 4 x 2 + y 2 = 7 .

Find the volume of the solid formed when the region bounded by the curve, the x -axis for x 0 and the y -axis for y 0 is rotated through 2 π about the x -axis.

Markscheme

Use of V = π 0 7 2 y 2 d x

V = π 0 7 2 ( 7 4 x 2 ) d x     (M1)(A1)

 

Note:     Condone absence of limits or incorrect limits for M mark.

Do not condone absence of or multiples of π .

 

= 19.4 ( = 7 7 π 3 )      A1
