6 . 1 INTRODUCTION

In the last unit we have seen how definite integrals can be used to calculate areas.
In fact, this application of definite integrals is not surprising. Because, as we have
seen earlier, the problem of finding areas was the motivation behind the definition
o f integrals. In this unit we shall see that the length of an arc of a curve, the
volume of a cone .and other solids of revolution, the area of a sphere and other
surfaces of revolution, can all be expressed as definite integrals. This unit alsb
brings us to the end of this course on calculus.

Objectives

find the length of an arc of a given curve whose equation is expressed in either
the Cartesian or parametric or polar forms,
a find the volumes of some solids of revolu"tion,
find the areas of some surfaces of revolution.

16.2 LENGTH OF A PLANE


- CURVE -

In this section we shall see how defihite integrals can be used t o find the lengths of
plane curves whose equations are given in the Cartesian, polar or parametric form.
A curve whose length can be found is called a rectifiable curve and the process of
finding the length of a curve is called rectification. You will see hereJhat to find
the length of an arc of a curve, we shall have to integrate an expression which
involves not only the given function, but also its derivative. Therefore, to ensure
the existence of the Integral which determines the arc length, we make an
assumption that the function defining the curve is derivable, and its derivative is
also continuous on the interval of integration.

Let's first consider a curve whose equation is given in the Cartesian form.

16.2.1 Cartesian Form


Let y = f(x) be defiiled on the interval [a, b]. We assume that f is derivable and its
derivative f ' is continuous. Let us consider a partition P, of [a, b],, given by
P, = [a=xo < x, < x2 < ...... < x n = b J
The ordinates x = a and x = b determine the extent of the arc AB of the curve
y = f(x) [Fig. l(a)]. Let M, = 1, 2, ......, n-1, be the points in which the lines x = xi
meet the curve.

If we can find the length of each line segment, the total length of this series will
give us an approximation to the length of the curve. But how do we find the'
length of any of these line segments? Take M2 M3, for example. Fig. I(b) shows
an enlargement of the encircled portion in Fig. ](a). Lookjng at it we find that
fi M2"3=fiX3)2+( A Y3l2,
where A x3 = M2Q is the length (x3 - x2), and
A ~3 =M3Q = f(x3) - f(x2)=y3 -. ~ 2 .
In this way we can find the lengths of the chords AM,.
M1M2, ......, Mn-,B, and take their sum

S , gives an approximation to the length of the arc AB. When the number of
division points is increased indefinitely, and the length of each segment tends to
zero, we obtain the length of the arc AB as

provided this limit exists.


Our assumptions that f is derivable on [a, bj, and that f ' is continuous, permit us
to apply the mean value theorem [Theorem 3, Unit 71.
Thus, there exists a point pi' (xi, y,:) between the points Mi-l and Mi on the curve,
where the tangent to the curve is parallei to the chord Mi-,Mi. That is,

Hence we can write (1) as

This is nothing but the definite integral


Applications of Calculus l'herefore

Remark 1: It is sometimes convenient to express x as a single valued function of y.


In this case we interchange the roles of x and y, and get the length

where the limits of integration are with respect to y. Note that the length of an arc
of a curve is invariant since it does not depend on the choice of coordinates, that
is, on the frame of reference. Our assumption that f ' is continuous on [a, b]
ensures that the integrals in (2) and (3) exist, and their value L: is the length
of the curve y = f(x) hetween the ordinates x = a and x = b.
The folIowing example illustrates the use of the formulas given by (2) and (3).
Example Is Suppose we want to find the length of the arc of the curve y =lnx
intercepted by the ordinates x = 1 and x = 2.
We have drawn the curve y =lnx in Fig. 2.

We can also use (3) to solve this example. For this we write the equation y =lnx as
x = ey. The limits x = 1 and x = 2, then correspond to the limits y = 0 and y = 1112,
respectively. Hence, using (3), we obtain

In the next sub-section we shall consider curves whose equations are expressed in
the parametric form.

16.2.2 Parametric Form


Somet~mesthe equation of a curve cannot be written either in the form y =f(x) or
In the form x = g(y). A common example is a circle x2t.y2 = a2. In such cases we
try to write the equation of the curve in the parametric form. For example, the
above circle can be represented by the pair of equations x = a cos t, y = a sin t. Here
we shall derive a formula to find the length of a curve given by a pair of
parametric equations.
Let x = +(t), y = $(t), a 5 t I p be the equation of a curve in parametric form.
As in the previous sub-section, we assume that the functions 4 and $ are both
derivable and have continuous derivatives +'and $ < on the interval [a,81. We

Applications. of Calculus The following example shows that sometimes it is more convenient to express the
equation of a given curve i s t h e parametric form in order to find its length.
Example 2: Let us find the whole length of the curve

By substitution, you can easily check that x = a cos3t, y-- b sin3t is the parametric
form of the given curve. The curve lies between the lines x = + a and y = + b
since -1 c cos t 5 1, and -1 I sin t .c 1 . The curve is symmetrical about both
the axes since its equation remains unchanged if we change the signs of x and y.
The value t = 0 corresponds to the point (a, 0) and t = ?r/2 corresponds to the point
(0, b). By applying the curve tracing methods discussed in Unit 9 we can draw this
curve (see Fig. 3).

Since the curve is symmetrical about both axes, the total length of the curve is
four times its length in the first quadrant.

In this sub-section we shall consider the case of a curve whose equation is given in
the polar form.

Let r = f(9) determine a curve as 9 varies from 9 = a to 9 = p, i.e., the function f is


defined in the interval [a,01 (see Fig. 4). As before, we assume that the function f
is derivable and its derivative f' is continuous on [a,B]. This assumption ensures
that the curve represented by r = f(9) is rectifiable.

Transforming the given equations into Cartesian coordinates by taking x = r cos 8,
y = r sin 8, we obtain x = f(8) cos 8, y = f(8) sin 8.
Now we proceed as in the case of parametric equations, and get.

Hence, the length of the arc of the curve r = f(8) from 8 = a to 8 = P is given by
x = f(4) cos p P ,

16.3 VOLUME OF A SOLID OF REVOLUTION

Until now, in this course. we were concerned with only plane curves and regions. In
this section we shall see how our knowledge of integration can be used to find the
volumes of certain solids. Look at the plane region in Fig. qa). It is bounded by
x = a, x = b, y = f(x) and the x-axis. If we rotate this plane region about the x-axis,
we get a solid. See Fig. Mb).

Such solids are called solids of revolution. Fig. 7(a) and Fig. 7(b) show two more
examples of solids of revolution.

The solid in Fig. 7(a) is obtained by revolving the region ABCQ around the y-axis.
The solid of revolution in Fig. 7(b) differs from the others in that its axis of
rotation does not form a part of the boundary of the plane region PQRS which is
rotated.

Wc see many examples of solids of revolution in every day life. The various kinds
of pots made by a potter using his wheel are solids of revolution. See Fig. 8(a).
Some objects manufactured with the help of !athe machines are also solids of
revolution. See Fig. 8(b).

between c and d, then 3xo €
express this volume as

following example.

of the parabola y 2 = 4ax between the ordinates x = 0, and x = a is revolved about
its axis. The solid of revolution is the parabolic cap in Fig. 10.
The volume V of the cap is given by

shown by the shaded region in Fig. 11. You will agree that we need to consider
only the area to the right of the y-axis.

In all the examples that we have seen till now, the axis o f rotation formed a
boundary of the region which was rotated. Now we take an example in which the
axis touches the region at only one point.

Example 7: Let us find the volume o f the solid generated by revolving the region
bounded by the parabolas y = x 2 and y 2 = 8 x about the x-axis. We have shown the-
area rotated and thc solid in Fig. 13 (a) and (b), respectively.

Here, the required volume will be the difference betyeen the volume of the solid
generated by the parabola y 2 = 8 x and that of the solid generated by the parabola
y =x 2.

16.4 AREA OF SURFACE OF REVOLUTION

Instead of rotating a plane region, if we rotate a curve about an x-axis, we shall


get a surface-of revolution. In this section we shall find a formula for the area of
such a surface. Let us start with the case when the equation of the curve is given
in the Carlcslan form.

where 1 is the slant height of the frustum and r l and r2 are the radii of its bases
Fig. 15 (Fig. 15).
In the frustum under consideration the radii of the bases are the ordinates f(x,-,)
and f(xi), while the slant height Mi-lMi is given by
wheie A yi= f(xi) - f ( ~ ~ _We ~ )assume

3) the areas of surfaces of revolution.

In each case we have derived formulas when the equation of the curve is given in
either the Cartesian or parametric or polar form. We give the results here in the
form of the following tables.
