Problem

The region between the curve y=x2y=x^{2} and the line y=4y=4 is the base of a solid. Cross sections perpendicular to the xx-axis are semicircles whose diameters lie in the region. What is the volume of the solid? (a) 128π15\dfrac{128\pi}{15} (b) 32π15\dfrac{32\pi}{15} (c) 64π15\dfrac{64\pi}{15} (d) 256π15\dfrac{256\pi}{15}
