    For anyone wondering, multiplying the 2pi in front comes from multiplying each shell cross section by the circumference of the shell (since circumference is 2pi*r, it just brings out the 2pi). That was something I didn't understand at first, so I thought I'd share it for anyone else who might be wondering :)

    Tomorrow is my semester's mid. I've been browsing your videos the last 1 hour about the trig identities/Volumes/Areas and if I do pass tomorrow it'll be because of you. You are a life saver. What is even more surprising is that we spend thousands of bucks on professors which barely could make math interesting. Though this video is about 10 years old, but you are still a legend. Keep up the good work, fam. (Y) May God Bless you.

      +Phalgun Krishna they are academics, all they care about is their research and their job. Some of them do not have the gift of teaching. therefore, professors are not hired for their teaching abilities but for research at a university.

    Rotating About Y-axis --> Cylindrical Shells Method Wins
    Rotating About X-axis --> Disk/Washer Method Wins

    • @crazylazy007
      @crazylazy007 Před 10 lety +2

      Just checking but is this due to the fact that you don't have to convert the y= x equations to x= y form or something else?

    • @B.A.Gondal
      @B.A.Gondal Před 10 lety +2

      crazylazy007 yup, you are right. That's the reason. But sometimes in very rare cases, it depends on the equation too like sometimes shell method might simplify things when rotating about x axis....but in general ya...its gud to use as mentioned above

    • @hassonal-mu2524
      @hassonal-mu2524 Před 9 lety +1

  • @himomimfamous
    @himomimfamous Před 7 lety +2

    So a general rule of thumb is to express the functions in terms of y if rotating about the y-axis and express functions in terms of x if rotating about the x-axis? Is this the opposite of the disk/washer method?

  • @RodesLaw

    Just tried this on the washers and disks section and it did not work for those. When it is about one of the axis, we keep useing x or y for shell radius right? thats the only possible place of error I can think of.
