Finding Volume of Revolution with Multivariate Calculus
For some function f(x) it is possible to rotate it along the x-axis and find the area using
I'm curious how to do this with multivariate calculus. If I represent this in a parametric form, like
and then rotate using
The result is over and .
I think to compute the volume, I need to use the double-integral
where I'm using ⟨⟩ for matrix determinant out of simplicity (and leaving out the bounds).
I can find and .
But the problem is that they would get put in a matrix, so it doesn't make sense to take the determinant.
