⚡ Mecademy AIENG정역학 · ch5 Problem Statement The area of the circular sector is rotated through about the -axis. Determine the volume of the resulting body, which is a portion of a sphere. Problem 5/67 (a) Determine the volume of the resulting body ● Calculation Process 1. Present Final Formula: According to the second theorem of Pappus-Guldinus, the volume of a body of revolution is equal to the product of the generating area , the angle of rotation (in radians), and the distance from the axis of rotation to the centroid of the generating area: 2. Substitute Values: The generating area is a circular sector of radius and total angle (since it spans from to relative to the -axis). Thus, rad. The area of the sector is . The centroid of a circular sector is located on its axis of symmetry at a distance from the vertex. Here, the axis of symmetry is the -axis, so : The rotation is about the y$-axis, so rad. Substituting these into the volume formula: 3.
