Problem

The region bounded by y=sin⁡xy=\sin x and y=cos⁡xy=\cos x on 0≤x≤π20\le x\le \tfrac{\pi}{2} is revolved about the xx-axis. At which xx-value must the definite integral for the volume change its limits to account for the switch in outer and inner radii? (a) π6\dfrac{\pi}{6} (b) π4\dfrac{\pi}{4} (c) π3\dfrac{\pi}{3} (d) π2\dfrac{\pi}{2}
