Consider the region bounded by x=f(y)x=f(y) and x=g(y)x=g(y), where f(y)≥g(y)≥0f(y)\ge g(y)\ge0 on 0≤y≤b0\le y\le b. The region is revolved about the yy-axis. Which integral gives the volume VV of the resulting solid? (a) V=π∫0b(f(y)−g(y)) dyV=\pi\displaystyle\int_{0}^{b}\bigl(f(y)-g(y)\bigr)\,dy (b) V=π∫0b[(f(y)−g(y))2] dyV=\pi\displaystyle\int_{0}^{b}\bigl[(f(y)-g(y))^{2}\bigr]\,dy (c) V=π∫0b[(f(y))2−(g(y))2] dyV=\pi\displaystyle\int_{0}^{b}\bigl[(f(y))^{2}-(g(y))^{2}\bigr]\,dy (d) V=2π∫0b[(f(y))2−(g(y))2] dyV=2\pi\displaystyle\int_{0}^{b}\bigl[(f(y))^{2}-(g(y))^{2}\bigr]\,dy
