Question 63

EasyOriginal question

Using horizontal strips, which integral gives the area of the region bounded by the parabola x2=2yx^{2} = 2y and the line y=2y = 2?

CorrectNot quiteAnswer D

Correct answer: D

Explanation

  1. x2=2yx^{2} = 2y gives x=±2yx = \pm\sqrt{2y}, so a strip at height yy runs from −2y-\sqrt{2y} to 2y\sqrt{2y}, length 22y2\sqrt{2y}.

  2. The strips run from the vertex, y=0y = 0, to y=2y = 2: ∫0222y dy=163\int_0^{2} 2\sqrt{2y}\,dy = \frac{16}{3}.

Worth noting

∫022y dy\int_0^{2} \sqrt{2y}\,dy measures each strip only from the yy-axis to the right arm, half the region.
