This Calculus 2 tutorial video shows a worked example of using the washer method to find the volume of a solid of revolution by revolving a region around the x axis. We use an animation to show the solid generated, and we work the integration completely. This is an example of an application of integration problem commonly found in a Calculus 2 or AP Calculus course. 0:00 Introduction & animation 2:10 Setting up the integral 2:57 Simplifying the integral 3:26 Solving the integral Washer Method Example 1 Video: • Washer Method Calculus (Example 1) Houston Math Prep Calculus 2 Playlist: • Calculus 2 Houston Math Prep YouTube: / houstonmathprep
