Single Variable Calculus, Chapter 8, 8.1, Section 8.1, Problem 58

Find the volume generated by rotating the region bounded by y=ex,y=ex and x=1 about y-axis. Use cylindrical shells method.
By using vertical strips have distance to the y-axis as x. Such that if you rotate these length about the y-axis, you'll get a circumference of c=x. Also, the height of the strips resembles the height of the cylinder as H=yupperylower=exex, Thus, the value is



V=10c(x)H(x)dxV=10(2πx)(exex)dxV=2π10x(exex)dx

By using integration by parts
V=4πe cubic units
