APPLICATIONS OF
DEFINITE INTEGRALS
Chapter 6
INTRODUCTION
• In this chapter, we extend the applications to finding
 volumes,
• lengths of plane curves,
• centers of mass,
• areas of surfaces of revolution,
• work, and
• fluid forces against planar walls.
We define all these as limits of Riemann sums of continuous functions on closed intervals—
that is, as definite integrals which can be evaluated using the Fundamental Theorem of
Calculus.
VOLUMES BY SLICING AND
ROTATION ABOUT AN AXIS
• A cross-section of a solid S is the plane region formed by
intersecting S with a plane.
• We begin by extending the definition of a cylinder from classical
geometry to cylindrical solids with arbitrary bases.
• If the cylindrical solid has a known base area A and height h, then
the volume of the cylindrical solid is A * h.
• This equation forms the basis for defining the volumes of many
solids that are not cylindrical by the method of slicing.
• If the cross-section of the solid S at each point in the interval [a, b]
is a region R(x) of area A(x), and A is a continuous function of x, we
can define and calculate the volume of the solid S as a definite
integral in the following way.
Volume = area * height = A(x) * h.

EXAMPLE 1
VOLUME OF A PYRAMID
• A pyramid 3 m high has a square base that is 3 m on a side. The cross-section of the
pyramid perpendicular to the altitude x m down from the vertex is a square x m on a
side. Find the volume of the pyramid.
EXAMPLE 2
CAVALIERI’S PRINCIPLE
• Cavalieri’s principle says that solids with equal altitudes and identical cross-sectional
areas at each height have the same volume. This follows immediately from the
definition of volume, because the cross-sectional area function A(x) and the interval
[a, b] are the same for both solids.
EXAMPLE 3
VOLUME OF A WEDGE
• A curved wedge is cut from a cylinder of radius 3 by two planes. One plane is
perpendicular to the axis of the cylinder. The second plane crosses the first plane at
a 45° angle at the center of the cylinder. Find the volume of the wedge.

SOLIDS OF REVOLUTION:
THE DISK METHOD
• The solid generated by rotating a plane region about an axis in its plane is called a solid of
revolution.
• To find the volume of a solid like the one shown in Figure 6.8, we need only observe that the
cross-sectional area A(x) is the area of a disk of radius R(x), the distance of the planar region’s
boundary from the axis of revolution. The area is then
• This method for calculating
the volume of a solid of revolution is often called
the disk method because a cross-section is a circular disk of radius R(x).

We know what is meant by the length of a straight line segment, but without calculus, we
have no precise notion of the length of a general winding curve.
The idea of approximating the length of a curve running from point A to point B by subdividing the curve into
many pieces and joining successive points of division by straight line segments dates back to the ancient
Greeks.
Archimedes used this method to approximate the circumference of a circle by inscribing a polygon of n
sides and then using geometry to compute its perimeter

When you jump rope, the rope sweeps out a surface in the space around
you called a surface of revolution.
The “area” of this surface depends on the length of the rope and the
distance of each of its segments from the axis of revolution.
In this section we define areas of surfaces of revolution.
Defining Surface Area
If the jump rope discussed in the introduction takes the shape of a
semicircle with radius a rotated about the x-axis (Figure 6.41), it
generates a sphere with surface area.

FLUID PRESSURES AND FORCES
FLUID PRESSURES AND FORCES
• We make dams thicker at the bottom than at the top
(Figure 6.64) because the pressure against them
increases with depth. The pressure at any point on a
dam depends only on how far below the surface the
point is and not on how much the surface of the dam
happens to be tilted at that point.
• The pressure, in pounds per square foot at a point h feet
below the surface,
is always 62.4h. The number 62.4 is the weight-density of
water in pounds per cubic foot.
• The pressure h feet below the surface of any fluid is the
fluid’s weight-density times h.
