Applications of Integration
Example 14.1:
The area enclosed between the curve y ( x 2) and the
ordinates x = 2 and x = 5 is rotated through 2 radians
about the x-axis. Calculate
(a) The rotating area and the coordinated of its centroid
(b) The volume of the solid of revolution generated and the
coordinates of its centre of gravity.

Solution 14.1:
(a) The rotating area is the shaded region shown in Figure
