Determine whether the following statements are true and give an explanation or counterexample. a. When using the shell method, the axis of the cylindrical shells is parallel to the axis of revolution. b. If a region is revolved about the \(y\) -axis, then the shell method must be used. c. If a region is revolved about the \(x\) -axis, then in principle, it is possible to use the disk/washer method and integrate with respect to \(x\) or the shell method and integrate with respect to \(y\)
Theo and Sasha start at the same place on a straight road, riding bikes with the following velocities (measured in \(\mathrm{mi} / \mathrm{hr}\) ). Assume \(t\) is measured in hours. Theo: \(v_{T}(t)=10,\) for \(t \geq 0\) Sasha: \(v_{S}(t)=15 t,\) for \(0 \leq t \leq 1\) and \(v_{S}(t)=15,\) for \(t>1\) a. Graph the velocity functions for both riders. b. If the riders ride for 1 hr, who rides farther? Interpret your answer geometrically using the graphs of part (a). c. If the riders ride for 2 hr, who rides farther? Interpret your answer geometrically using the graphs of part (a). d. Which rider arrives first at the \(10-, 15-\), and 20 -mile markers of the race? Interpret your answer geometrically using the graphs of part (a). e. Suppose Sasha gives Theo a head start of \(0.2 \mathrm{mi}\) and the riders ride for 20 mi. Who wins the race? f. Suppose Sasha gives Theo a head start of \(0.2 \mathrm{hr}\) and the riders ride for 20 mi. Who wins the race?
Find the area of the region bounded by the curve \(x=\frac{1}{2 y}-\sqrt{\frac{1}{4 y^{2}}-1}\) and the line \(x=1\) in the first quadrant. (Hint: Express \(y\) in terms of \(x\).)
Find the volume of the solid of revolution. Sketch the region in question. The region bounded by \(y=1 / \sqrt{x}, y=0, x=2,\) and \(x=6\) revolved about the \(x\) -axis
City A has a current population of 500,000 people and grows at a rate of \(3 \% /\) yr. City \(\mathrm{B}\) has a current population of 300,000 and grows at a rate of \(5 \% / \mathrm{yr}\). a. When will the cities have the same population? b. Suppose City C has a current population of \(y_{0} < 500,000\) and a growth rate of \(p>3 \% /\) yr. What is the relationship between \(y_{0}\) and \(p\) such that the Cities \(A\) and \(C\) have the same population in 10 years?
