Problem

The region in the first quadrant bounded by the yy-axis, the line y=3y=3, and the curve x=y2x=y^{2} is the base of a solid. Cross sections perpendicular to the yy-axis satisfy • for 0≤y≤10\le y\le 1, the cross section is a square whose side length equals x=y2x=y^{2}; • for 1<y≤31<y\le 3, the cross section is an equilateral triangle whose base length equals x=y2x=y^{2}. Determine the volume of the solid.
