    Need help with computing the volume of a solid by revolving lines

    so i used dy to integrate and for a i got 2(pi)/3 which i think is right because i checked it with V = (1/3) π r² h. But i am not sure how to get b. i know its a cylinder with the cone removed and i think its volume is 4(pi)/3 but i still have no idea.

    Projectile Motion: Finding the Best Angle for a Tennis Ball Launcher

    well I am not sure how algebraically reduce the quadratic off the top of my head and i haven't missed the point of the substitution identities. the way my class used involves substiutions but with the equations and knowns to make a new equations. And i think it is cool that you found way to do...

    Projectile Motion: Finding the Best Angle for a Tennis Ball Launcher

    you don't really need to use any identities we know that x=xo + Vxo(t) so time = x/Vxo because xo in this problem = 0 and Vxo= VoCosθ so t= x/VoCosθ we also know that y= yo+Vyo(t)-(.5)(g)(t)^2 so plug in t= x/VoCosθ wereever their is time which would look like y= yo+Vyo(...

    Projectile Motion: Finding the Best Angle for a Tennis Ball Launcher

    ok i got this in class. you have to use y= Yo + x(tanθ)-(.5)(g)(x/Vocosθ)^2 for this y=0 x=100 Vo=35 put it in your graphic cal and find the zeroes
