Homework Statement


Revolve the region bounded by x=0, x=1, y=0 and y=x^5 about the y-axis use shells to find the volume

I know how to set up the integral I just don't know where I'm integrating from. Is it from 0 to 1?

Hi physicsnewb7! :smile:

You can use "horizontal" strips, to give you disc shells, or "vertical" strips, to give you cylindrical shells …

in either case, use the endpoints of the strip. :wink:
