Problem

A solid has base on the xx-axis from x=0x=0 to x=4x=4. At each xx the distance between the parallel sides of the base is s(x)=x+1s(x)=x+1. Cross sections perpendicular to the xx-axis are • squares for 0≤x≤20\le x\le 2, • semicircles with diameter s(x)s(x) for 2<x≤42< x\le 4. Calculate the volume of the solid.
