3.1 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 of 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 also brings us to the end of this course on calculus.

Objectives
After reading this unit you should be able to :
find the length of an arc of a given curve whose equation is expressed in either the
Cartesian or parametric or polar forms,
find the volumes of some solids of revolution,
find the areas of some surfaces of revolution.

3.2 LENGTH OF A PLANE CLTRVE

In this section we shall see how definite integrals can be used to 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 here that 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 is deriative is
also continuous on the interval of integration.
Let's first consider a curve whose equation is given in the Cartesian form.

3.2.1 Cartesian Form

Let y = f(x) be defined on the interval [a, b]. We assume that f is derivable and its derivative
f is continuous. Let us consider a partition Pnof [a, b], given by

The ordinates x = a and x = b determine the extent of the arc AB of the curve y = f(x)
Fig. 1 (a)]. Let Mi = 1,2, .........., n - 1, be the points in which the lines x = xi meet the curve.
Join the successive points A, M,, M,, M3, ........,M,,, B by straight line segments. Here we
have approximated the given curve by a series of line segments.
Appllcrtlons o f Calculus

't

If we can fmd 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 fmd the length of any of these
line segments?Take M2,M,, for example. Fig. I(b) shows an enlargement of the encircled
portion in Fig. I(a). Looking at it we fmd that

where A x, = M2Qis the length (x, - $),and

AY, =M3Qtflx3)- fl$) =y3-y2.
In this way we can fmd the lengths of the chords AMI,
MlM2,........,M,,B, and take their sum

Sngives an approximation to thelength 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,b], and that f is continuous, permit us to apply the
mean value themtm meom 3, Block 21.
Thus,there exists a point P,' (xi', y,') between the points Mi_,and Mi on the curve, when
the tangent to the curve is parallel to the chord M,, Mi. That is,

or Ayi = f (xi*) Ax,

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) between the
ordinates x = a and x = b.
The following example illustratesthe use of the formulas given by (2) and (3).
Example 1 :Suppose we want to find the length of the arc of the curve y = k x intercepted by
the ordinates x = 1 and x = 2.
We have drawn the curve y = lnx in Fig. 2.

Flg. 2

Using (2), the required length L,2 is given by

dx t
If we put 1 + x2= t2, we get -= - ,and therefore,
dt x
Applications of Calculus

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, h n correspond to the limits y = 0 and y = 1112respectively.
,
Hence, using (3), we obtain

as we have seen earlier. This verifies our observation in Remark 1 that both (2) and (3) give
us the same value of arc length.
Now, here are some exercises for you to solve.

In the next sub-section we shall consider curves whose equations are expressed in the
panmetric f o m

3.2.2 Parametric Form

Sometimesthe 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 x2+ $ = 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 panmetric equations.
Let x = Nt), y = ~ ( t )a, 5 t S f3 be the equation of a curve in parametric f o m As in the
previous sub-section, we assume that the functions $ and q~ are both derivable and have

a given c w e in the parametric form in order to find its length.
Example 2: Let us find the whole length of the c w e

By substitution, you can easily check that x =a cos3t,y = b sin3t is the parametric form of the
given c w e . The m e lies between the lines x = f a and y = f b since -1 5 cos t 5 1, and
-1 5 sin t S 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 = d 2 corresponds to the point (0, b). By applying the m e tracing methods discussed
in Unit 9 we can draw this c w e (see Fig. 3).

Fig. 3

Since the c w e is symmetricalabout both axes, the total length of the c w e 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(0) determine a curve as 8 varies from 9 = a to 8 = b, i.e.,-the function f is defined in
the interval [a, @](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 c w e represented by
r = f(8) is rectifiable.
 Furtbct Applieatfonr o f

Transforming the given equation into Cartesian coordinates by taking x = r cos 0,

y = r sin 0, we obtain x = f(0) cos 0, y = f(0) sin 0.

Now we proceed as in the case of parametric equations, and get,

Hence, the length of the arc of the curve r = q0) from 0 = a to 0 = $ is given by

changing the variable x to 8.

We shall apply this formula to find the length of the curve in the following example.
Example 3: To find the perimeter of the cardioid r = a (1 + cos 0) we note that the curve is
symmetrical about the initial line (Fig. 5). Therefore its perimeter is double the length of the arc
of the curve lying above the x-axis.

3.3 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 volume of
certain solids. Look at the plane region in Fig. 6 (a). 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. 6 (b).
-- -
 Such solids are called solids of nvoluhbn. Fig. 7 (a) and Fig. 7@) show two more examples of
solids of revolution.

Fig. 7

The solid in Fig. 7(a) is obtained by revolving the region ABCO 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.
We see many examples of solids of revolution in every day 1ife.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 lathe machine are also solids of revolution. See Fig. 8 (b).
Now, let us try to find the volume of a solid of revolution. The method which we are going to Furtbw Appllcatloa~of
